Americans throw away $2,200 worth of food per household every year — and most of that waste is fruits and vegetables that went bad before you could eat them.
Green Bags are here to change that.
How Green Bags work:
Fruits and vegetables produce ethylene gas as they ripen. This gas accelerates the ripening process, causing produce to spoil faster — especially when stored in regular plastic bags that trap the gas.
Green Bags are made with a natural mineral called zeolite that absorbs ethylene gas, dramatically slowing the ripening process. The result?
- Bananas stay yellow instead of turning brown in 2 days
- Strawberries stay firm for a week or more
- Lettuce stays crisp far beyond its usual shelf life
- Tomatoes maintain their firmness and flavor
- Herbs stay fresh instead of wilting overnight
The savings add up fast:
| Without Green Bags | With Green Bags |
|---|---|
| Bananas: 3-4 days | Bananas: 10-14 days |
| Strawberries: 2-3 days | Strawberries: 7-10 days |
| Lettuce: 3-5 days | Lettuce: 14-21 days |
| Weekly waste: $15-25 | Weekly waste: $3-5 |
Each bag is reusable up to 10 times. Simply wash, dry, and reuse. A single pack of Green Bags can save hundreds of dollars over a year in reduced food waste.
Stop throwing money in the trash. Green Bags keep your produce fresh, your wallet full, and your conscience clear. Less waste, more savings — it’s that simple.
