Cleary Fresh Bags Review
A while back…well, a long while back actually….Anne contacted me about reviewing the Clearly Fresh Bags. She was awesome enough to even ship me a sample to Canada. And then even more awesome by being patient while I disappeared to BlogHer and tried to get settled back in.
On the up side, though, I put fruit into the bags before I left for the conference for a week, so I was able to give a legit review of the bags. They worked great! I took some pictures, but they didn’t really turn out that well ‘cause you can’t tell much difference. I’ll show you some from their site, though, and will try to get better pictures from the next attempt with the bags I do. I don’t want to make these guys wait any more than I already have, though.
The video above gives some really good tips on how to use them. It’s kinda sad they can’t really be used more than a few times since you can’t wash them and still keep the BreatheWay patch working, but I don’t feel so bad because each use lasts a couple weeks really.
There’s a lot more information on how the bags work on the site, too. Basically, it let’s the good stuff in and the bad stuff out. :P I don’t know the details of what’s actually in the breathe membrane, but it seems to work.
So far, I’ve only tried them with a couple different types of produce (blueberries and lettuce), but I’m looking forward to trying them out with already cut fruits and things like peaches that seem to either last a while or go bad rather quickly. I’m wondering if they’d work well on mushrooms, too….they’re not on the list and not a fruit or veggie, but still a produce that tends to go bad.
Want to try them out yourself? It looks like you can buy them straight through the site for $4 for 10 bags. Keep in mind that the bags are really big, too, so you’re not buying little rinky-dink ziplocs here.
And if you have any other questions about them, feel free to ask in the comments or email me. I know I didn’t get too detailed here, but their site has a lot of great info and I’ll likely post about them again as I try them out more. :)
Jell-O Pudding Face – Feeling down, have some pudding!
Creepy enough for you, huh?
Well try it out on a live billboard, too.
Jell-O has a live twitter scanner that tracks all tweets with smiley and frowny faces. Any time it tips the scale so that there are more frowns, it means Jell-O is giving away pudding to cheer people up.
If you watch long enough online, this pudding face will also look around, wink at you, and look really, really sad or extra creepy happy. Keep an eye out for the red light to go off on the pudding page and you’ll notice Jell-O Mood Meter start to give away more pudding.
Ship in the bottle is out – View in a water bottle is in
While waiting in San Diego for the ferry to take us over to Coronado, we decided that if we weren’t eating just yet, we at least needed to get a drink.
Touristy spots generally mean insane high prices for silly items like bottles of water. We were thirsty, though, so no real harm done.
I was particularly excited when the awesome Lisa from Anthony’s Fish Grotto greeted us with a huge smile, took our order, and when she passed over what I thought were simple bottles of water, pointed out how you could see the San Diego skyline in the bottle.
Wait, what? Really?
Sure enough, there it was! And as we drank the water, I was particularly delighted to see that it looked like the picture water was moving with the real water.
Yes, I’m that easily delighted, hehe.
And I was so excited by my funky bottle of water (shush it :P), that I stepped back over and asked her to take a picture. Remember, I was just at a conference where pictures were nonstop, so I’m sure it was way weirder for her than it was for me, but I was thrilled, hehe.
Thank you, Lisa!
