"How to facilitate a family lifestyle?" - This is the answer that I can die in search! - I think there are alternative ways besides the use of salads.
As a acting parent, I am always happy to buy something that can make life easier for any kitchen, especially me; at the end of a long day! Although, I sometimes use these “salads in a bag,” these cute looks, and sometimes fun, to hear the slippery handbags — indeed, I ask about my higher power.
The problem of “lettuce in a bag” really presents several questions in my mind ... first of all, how healthy can it be - phytonutrients still live? And secondly, what am I talking about ... I can not make a salad in five minutes? Weekly, I stand in front of the cold stores, which store all these beautiful fresh, bagged, pre-washed salads, and I often say to myself, "Is that what?"
How long does it take to open the bag of this pre-crushed material and rewind it — unlike to evade the ends of the root ball and run the contents under running water or drop the leaves into the pool at room temperature until you prepare the rest of the ingredients?
This convenient bagging course should be washed out after opening due to growing evidence that this bacterium pollutes lettuce due to the use of manure fertilizers. And in some cases there were Salmonella and E. Coli for greens and vegetables that were not fertilized that way. If you choose a salad in a bag or not, wash your hands before handling raw foods, and always wash your products independently of them.
Check the shelf life of the package and evaluate the shelf life of the greens stored inside the bag. Even if the product looks manageable, you should avoid buying any product after it expires. Bag salads are often claimed to have been washed and labeled “Prewashed” or “Ready to Eat.” I often ask this method.
My recommendation is to wash everything that will bring home; with a non-toxic vegetarian sink, if possible. Keep in mind - bacteria can grow faster in foods that are older or deteriorate - always buy the freshest ingredients.
Salads are really something that can be done at the same time that it takes to pick a bag, take it home and wash it again ... and if this does not change your mind, it may be worth it!
