Bluapple Review and Giveaway

The Bluapple

     Don’t  you absolutely hate it when you go grocery shopping for your weekly trip and before the end of the week is up, certain fruits and vegetables have to pitched in the trash!?  I am so pissed when I spend money on produce (trying to be healthy) and I have to throw it away a couple days later.  Although I do eat a lot of produce, I am not a vegetarian.  So there is absolutely no way I am going to eat a head of lettuce, a head of broccoli, a head of cauliflower, a bundle of asparagus, a bag of baby carrots, a couple of apples, pears, etc. all in three to four days!  I have been trying all sorts of home remedies to try to fix the spoilage in the fridge and on my counter such as placing a piece of bread or paper towel in the bag of asparagus.  But even though it does help, it’s not a solution!

     What happens is the fruits and vege’s give off Ethylene gas which helps along the process of ripening.  “However, once concentrated in your refrigerator or other storage areas, the presence of ethylene gas continues to speed up ripening and hasten spoilage.”  So in other words if you wanted to avoid from your produce from rotting you should drive to the grocery store each day and purchase only the produce you want to use that day!  That is unless you have a Bluapple

     Bluapple absorbs the ethylene gas produced by the produce in these storage spaces.  It does so by “a simple and safe method of neutralizing ethylene is to “oxidize” it with sodium permanganate.”  This can be used for up to three month’s or until the active ingredient has reached its capacity.

     I have now been using my Bluapple for approximately a week and a half.  In that time I have not thrown away the following produce (purchased around the same time) in my refrigerator drawer:  Broccoli, Head Lettuce, Baby Carrots, Apples, Tomatoes, and Oranges.  I did, however, have to discard my strawberries, asparagus (kept out of the drawer), and bananas (kept on counter).  So granted it hasn’t even been two weeks BUT the Bluapple appears to be doing what it says it does with 70% of the produce I personally have stored.

Cost: $9.95 2 pack apples
Available to purchase: Bluapple
Recommendation:  For the low cost of $10 I think this is totally worth is even to try if you aren’t convinced.  You spend more I’m sure on produce in most households and probably waste more as well.  This is not expensive if it works for your setup and household needs.
