The only packaged salad greens I can consume are those from Trader Joe's. I've had this conversation with a friend over the past year each time he buys packaged produce. To me, the greens taste like they've absorbed odors form the refrigerated section of the stores. I don't know what it is about the bags from TJ's, but they taste fine to me, and I've purchased the bags from different stores in my area. I cannot stand the taste of Eskimo Pies on a wooden stick because I cringe from the taste of the wood. I contacted the company in Richmond years ago and they told me that they used the best wood sticks they could and said it was not an arbitrary decision.
