Default Anyone own Debbie M.'s Green Boxes?

Comments? If they're as good as the bags, then they're probably worth
the bucks. I wonder how visible the contents are, tho. That was my
big beef about Tupperware - I couldn't see what was IN the darn
things.

It kills me to toss out food - I had to chuck a good hunk of Swiss
cheese today had allowed to get buried in the fridge and forgot
about. Nice green coat, it wore.

Even clear containers get buried. If stuff is getting buried and
forgotten you are buying way too much food.

Yeah, but at least you don't have to remove lids to see what's in 'em.

I admit I got lazy with the cheese. I put it in the veg. drawer in
its original wrapper instead of wrapped in vinegar soaked paper towel
and in a clear container in the cheese drawer as I usually do.

Cutting away the mold would have left a piece about the size of a
communion wafer.

An American is as likely to do that as you are to BBQ at 2 am.

It is the traditional way of caring for hard cheeses. Yes, I've done it.
Yes, I'm an American.

It's a filthy dirty unbathed guinea who's likely to have moldy cheese.

There is not a published food scientist who agrees with you unless you are
speaking of a fresh cheese such as ricotta or cream cheese. Molds that grow
on cheeses are particular molds and are not harmful if cut away.

There are actually molds and mold spores inside your head. You will
correctly cut off the whole head to get rid of them, then you will feel much
better.

....with cheese types that are o.k. and not o.k.
