We’ve not yet come across the right non-plastic salad spinner for our product line. There are sneaky ones out there touted as “stainless steel,” but that’s just on the exterior. The interior coming into contact with the greens is still plastic.
Our intrepid blogger friend, Beth Terry of My Plastic-Free Life, recently wrote a lovely blog about just this issue. She considers the traditional plastic ones we’ve likely all seen, and perhaps grown up with – but which are, yes, plastic. With some help from the indomitable Julia Child she discovers the traditional French and Swiss ones – some great options there!
But what she finally opts for is a simple organic cotton produce bag – just like our certified organic cotton Greens Bag. Not only did it work like a charm, but from the look and sound of it, Beth had a blast drying out that lettuce.
