Bountiful Baskets
August 14, 2010
We have heard so many good things about Bountiful Baskets that we decided to give it a try this week. It's a food co-op that brings fresh produce to communities throughout Utah (and a whole bunch of other states) for really cheap. Today, Jeff brought home a laundry basket full of goodies:
- 1 head of lettuce
- 1 cantaloupe
- 1 lb. carrots
- 2-3 lbs. grapes
- 1 egg plant
- 1 lb. strawberries
- 2 lbs. bananas
- 6 Roma tomatoes
- 8 pears
- 8 nectarines
- 7 ears of corn
- 9 cucumbers
If you're thinking that's a ton of fresh fruits and veggies, you're right! I'm not sure how we are going to eat all of it this week! It was definitely worth the $15... especially when you consider that the grapes, strawberries, and nectarines alone would cost at least $10 in the grocery store. Despite having a really confusing website, I think we're hooked and will be doing this at least every other week. Maybe it will help counter my Oreo binge.

Correction on the nectarines... they're pluots. I thought they looked weird when Jeff said they were nectarines but why argue?
ReplyDeleteI was going to ask you if you were sure they were nectarines because my basket came with pluots this week. Pretty cool organization isn't it? I love getting my weekly baskets. :)
ReplyDeleteYum!!
