This is a set of two boxes, for a total of 20 produce bags. PeakFresh produce bags remove ethylene gas to prolong the life and freshness of produce, more than doubling the life expectancy of fruits and vegetables. Most fruit and vegetables release ethylene gas after harvest. Exposure to this gas accelerates aging in fruit and vegetables (the expression one bad apple spoils the barrel comes from this process). Unlike ordinary plastic bags, PeakFresh produce bags have a natural mineral embedded in them to absorb ethylene, minimize moisture formation, and assist in maintaining Vitamin C levels. To use the produce bag, pre-cool warm fruit and vegetables in refrigerator before storing in bag. Use a separate bag for each type of produce. Produce to be stored should be fresh, dry, and undamaged. For produce being stored at room temperature, no pre-refrigeration is needed; simply put the produce straight into the bag. Expel air from the bag and close using the enclosed ties. Bags should be washed and dried thoroughly before re-use and can be re-used for up to two months. Keep bags away from fire and children.

New Addition to my Kitchen
These bags worked better than I thought. For the price, it's really a great deal. You receive 2 sets of bags. These bags are great for extending life of your produce. My lettuce was kept well over a week. I wash lettuce, let sit so it can drain. I usually kind of wrap in paper towel so excess water can be absorbed. If you have trouble with keeping your produce fresh you need to try these. The bags are budget friendly compared to others on market and do the same great job. I now keep these accessible in my kitchen at all times.

Great product. One of those "works as advertized".
Vegetables, including herbs, kept completely fresh for well over a week. Easy to clean.One caveat, though: The bags don't keep mushrooms that well. They tend to get moldy.

Best substitute for Hefty's
Hefty stopped making their veggie storage bags which were the best. I've tried others with leaky results. These work really well. Kept strawberries for a week without molding or shrinking. Just follow the directions to refrigerating and drying before putting them in the bags. I like that they're reuseable.

Keeps vegetables fresh
This keeps your vegetables fresh for longer than the cheap biodegradable bags that you get at the grocery store.

A great investment for a low cost!
These bags are phenomenal! As a member of a CSA I get more fresh produce once a week than I can possibly use before it starts going bad. Things like lettuce and herbs were only lasting 1-2 days. With these bags I get 1-2 weeks out of most all of my items! These are a great deal so you aren’t tossing rotten produce and the bags are only about $.60 each and reusable. Wonderful product!

Bags don’t work
We have a small hobby farm and buy a lot of produce. We have used another brand of stay fresh bags (yellow in color) for the past 5 years. We decided to try these bags out because they included more bags for less money. Not worth it. Leafy produce yellowing and not staying crisp. Green bananas ripening way too fast. Seemed the bags accelerated the ripening process. These bags don’t extend the shelf life and in some cases it appears to hasten.

The best bags for keeping produce!
I live 20 miles from the nearest store of any kind, including grocery stores, so it's important to keep my produce fresh for as long as possible to cut down on trips to town, especially considering the cost of gasoline these days. I've used the "green bags" in the past but IMHO they're inferior to Fresh Peak bags. I do wish Peak Fresh offered a larger size bag, also, but I just use two bags if needed. The biggest problem I had was teaching my family to not toss these bags in the trash! It took awhile to train them but they all know I don't keep anything in those flimsy bags you get at the grocery store so I think we've finally cleared that hurdle. LOL

Works great to extend the life of produce
I used something called "Green Bags" for years, which was a similar product, and found these when I was searching for them. This product works great to extend the life of produce. I currently have some celery in the fridge that has held up for 3 weeks in one of these bags. These work for pretty much all produce, and the difference is truly amazing. It really helps cut potential food waste for fresh vegetables and fruit.The ONLY downside is that because they are clear, these tend to look very similar to the throw away bags for produce from the grocery store, so if you are not paying attention, these can get thrown away, and since they can be reused multiple times, you definitely do not want to toss them. I wish that the bags were colored rather than clear so that there was a visual cue not to toss them. But other than that, there are no issues at all with these!
