Mike, I can't say this with absolute certainty, but it makes sense to me to

start over, because you've already leached two days worth of minerals and

other nutrients out of the bones, so I'm not sure there'd be much left to

leach. And the whole point is to extract the nutrients from the bones, of

course.

There are crisper cloth bags that you can probably buy at a natural foods

store that are supposed to be made for this purpose.

1.!Start over with new bones, give the old sturdy bones to your dog.

2. I use these green bags I get from the health food store and a ozone

refridgerator unit to keep my lettus and vegatables in. When I was my lettus

for salads I add apple cider vinegar to the soak water and it really perks

up the limp leaves. It also adds a little zing!

Use Evert-fresh bags http://www.evert-fresh.com/. They are excellent!

I can't wait to pick up more when I come back to the US.

When I have washed and dried lettuce, I wrap it in a

teatowel and keep in the fridge. It makes it last a

day or 2 longer I find

I think somebody asked about this recently. I find that the green

vegetable bags by Evert Fresh (Google: Evert Fresh) are EXCELLENT for

keeping all types of vegetables crisp and for reducing vitamin loss.

Unless someone has heard something to the contrary, they are supposed

to be natural and safe.

I suppose a salad spinner isn't natural as it's plastic, but i can keep

salad fresh for ages in it. I tear it up, wash it and spin it, then store it

in the basket so it gets some air in there.
