Onto questions.
First thing I did ws contact them via email told them id like to try the salad but had my reservations, they offered to sell me a pound sample size for 10 including shipping and I took them up on the offer. I placed the order and was sent within a couple hours the invoice and info on payment through Paypal. I was told that the same day my paypal payment cleared the salad would be shipped. Well it took 2 days for my paypal to clear (im just starting to use paypal) once it cleared just about an hour after I recieved the paypal payment email I recived email from them saying it had cleared and the salad would be shipped that day. Well approx two hours later I was emailed again that my salad was shipped, two days after that the salad arrived.

IT arrived in nice vacume sealed bags , greens in one, veggies in other. With a nice lable on the bags (typed above)

I was also told in email that the ingredients will be varied week to week to prevent boredom and depending on avaliabilty and quality of what they have to choose from. I was assured that only the best selectins would be used.

OKay freshness. THe greens color was amazing even better color than ive found around my area, the feel and texture of the greens were fine, no signs or smell of it being rotten or even starting to.

The veggies were shreeded and my first impression when I saw the bag was that it would feel slimy having all the vegies together I was VERY PLEASLNTY SURPRISED THAT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE. The vegies were nice as well, no bad oder or feel and they looked great as well.

Service, Well id have to say services was one of the best ive recieved online, they were fast with response, direct when I asked questions, told me they use NO preservitives or additives, I questioned there summer shipping methods and was given enough assurances that Id order in the summer as well.

Personally I think the salad looked better than any I have been able to put together here. I also really like the convience of opening a bag an filling bowls, being as I have to do salad for 4 cages, the iguana, 6 guinea pigs (3 per cage), and a rabbit. As a mom to 3 human kids as well this was really nice time saver to not have to do all the chopping myself.

The bag was a vacume seal bag with the ingredints label (above with ingredients). IF I saw it in a supermarket id stop to check it out as im always looking for easier way with the crew.

Would I buy it again, Yes this time though im planning on making a full order due to the fact that the sample's pretty much gone now since I tried it out on all the crew here instead of just DD.

Anymore questions let me know. I'd deffintly reccomend giving this a try yourself I find it worth it.

Unfortunatly I was unable to get pics.
