Every working day I make my wife a salad for her to take to work. She works too hard and couldn't be relied on always to nip out of the office to buy something, and it saves us a fortune - her salad made with carrot, yellow pepper, ginger, and skinned satsuma segments today cost I reckon about 50p. Add a yogurt and a banana and it is £1 in total. From her university canteen it would be at least £3, from M&S maybe £4 for that lot.
The tongue-in-cheek title 'salads and saving the world' refers to the ridiculous amount of packaging a shop-bought salad would entail, some double wrapped with a disposable plastic carton inside a plastic bag. Her click-seal salad box has lasted two years, and shows no signs of wear.
