Question 1

Are all the Preserve Bags the same?

Accepted Answer

The Preserve Bags are made with different colors to make it easy to separate and organize your vegetables. It is important to keep different vegetables separate in order for them to last even more. So "yes" you can use the Green bag for Tomatoes if you need to.

Question 2

Can I place different vegetables on the same bag?

Accepted Answer

Avoid mixing different vegetables in the same bag. Be mindful that softer vegetables should stay on the top. That is why we established different colors so that you can separate the vegetables and easily find them when you need them.

Question 3

How do I clean the Preserve Bags?

Accepted Answer

When necessary, turn inside out, and wash by hand using neutral soap, without bleaching or passing anything hot. Shake it and let it dry in the sun if you have any residual dirt.

Question 4

Can I place the produce back on the bag once they are open?

Accepted Answer

No. Once you slice an apple or tomato, for example, and break the skin seal, the produce should not be stored back in the Preserve Bag.

Question 5

Should I wash the vegetables before storing on the Preserve Bag?

Accepted Answer

If you do, make sure you dry them well. We recommend storing them as-is and washing them when it comes the time for consumption. This way, you can avoid the humidity, which is a big villain of food preservation.

Question 6

Does the Preserve Bags really doubles the life of the vegetables?

Accepted Answer

It took us over two and a half years to develop the bag: several prototypes and several tests in various conditions. When we say 2X, we are being conservative. Although several factors will influence how long the vegetables will last, such as humidity, the state of the produce when purchased, among others. The vegetables can sometimes last up to 4X more.
