As a Tupperware consultant, with a Tupperized kitchen, I not only know better (cost vs. convenience) but I have the tools to do salad right. I am making a commitment to use the tools I have & "ditch" the bagged lettuce for good.
The convenience of opening a bag of lettuce is pretty enticing. But I (you) can duplicate it with just a little effort.
- Buy whole heads of your favorite greens
- Wash them yourself
- Spin them dry
- Tear into bite-sized pcs., or not
- Store properly for maximum keeping time & freshness
Our salad spinner is terrific. It is a large capacity, the bowl comes with a seal so that you can actually clean/serve your salad in the same bowl. The seal makes the bowl great for potato, pasta and layered salads too. Normally $49.50, it is on sale on my website for just $27. I don't know for sure how long the sale will last...

The second very helpful item is the FridgeSmart Containers. These will keep your produce fresh longer, I promise! By controlling airflow & moisture, according to the needs of the particular type of produce, you can keep things at least 3 time longer than if store in plastic in your "slime drawers"! These are also available as a set or individually on my website.
I will be using that big container (e.) to store my torn lettuce in the future. I'll still have the advantage of instant salads, and it'll stay fresh longer!
