Green bags to prevent spoilage, do they work?

Date: October 04, 2012 02:18PM I have seen the ads for "Evertfresh" green bags that purportedly absorb ethylene dioxide gas thereby increasing the shelflife and reducing spoilage for greens in your crisper/frig. Does anyone have any experience with the bags? The reason I asked is that I bought a competitor "Blue Apple" [www.thebluapple.com] which had pretty disappointing performance I must say at least for greens. Fruits were a little better. I'm just wondering if anyone has a story about these gas reducing devices and is it worth it?
I think at this point, I'm more inclined to make more trips, eat my produce more quickly and go back more often a la the Europeon way. I have no experience with the bags. Another option is for produce about to go south, juice it or dehydrate it or freeze it.. albeit with some nutrient loss. Let me know your thoughts. Best.
