As an apartment dweller without a balcony, a garden isn't an option for me (well, also, I am not the gardening type, as I know from those years when I had the opportunity), but as a Canadian living in a climate when local fruits and vegetables are very far away from a year-round thing, the difference between, say, peaches picked an hour away and those picked more or less green and shipped from, say, California (no offence), is a wonder to behold!
Seriously, how could I not have noticed what I was putting into that shelf? The bag was transparent and weighed — well, it weighed about what your average head of leaf lettuce (not iceberg!) does: very little.
Reminds me of the (less-destructive) time I stowed away a package of paper towels in me old mum's fridge for some reason.
