Hi
Tupperware has different sized containers with two vents of the outside at
one end that you can store all sorts of vegetables in. It depends on what
kind of vegetable that you put in the container as to how to set the vents.
I am sure a Tupperware dealer would explain how to use the vents. For
example some vegetables you would leave one vent open and the other one
closed. Hope this helps in the question of keeping lettuce and other
vegetables. I have used these containers for watermelon, cucumbers, sweet
pepers couliflour and radishes. They work very well and you can keep any of
these vegables or in the case of watermelon, fruit for at least a week. If
any one out there buys any of these containers and would like to know how
the vents are to be placed you can contact me off list and I would be happy
to give the information.

I usually take the core out of the lettuce. I use the green bags since they
have some charcoal a light coat in the bag and that is why vegetables will
keep. Now some people put a paper towel in the bag. I tie the bag closed.
After several uses I find the bag no longer is good to store vegetables in
so I buy new ones.
I find the green containers do not work for storing vegetables at least
the bag are better. There are very fine net bags which I find are not as
good as the green ones.

Subject: [CnD] Trying Again! A Lettuce Question
Does any one have suggestions as to how to keep lettuce fresh for a few
days? I read in Heloise's hints about sticking a piece of paper towel in
the
bag with the lettuce to absorb moisture, but I still have moisture, and
part
of the lettuce gets slimey and half needss to be tossed out. Would
storing
it in a salad spinner work and spinning it each day or is there a plastic
storage keeper that you can get at a store available for storage of
lettuce?
I always only wash as much lettuce as I need for servings, never the
entire
thing at once. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I know Tupperware had a lettuce keeper years ago.
Also, was considering buying a salad spinner; how do you use them, and
can
you give uses for them?
Let two! grins! grow! where one! grouch! was before!

Hi,
Have you considered taking it off the George and putting the meat with
cheese in the microwave for a few seconds? I wouldn't think it should
take more than a few seconds, maybe 10 to 20.

Hello,
I like cheeseburgers and I cook my burgers on the George Foreman
grill. Even though I put Pam on the grill before I heat it, when I put
a slice of cheese on my burger for the last minute of cooking so that
it will melt, it always ends up sticking to the top grill plate. Any
suggestions? Allison Fallin
