Ok... not having a go at anoyone but I would
never feed these to my rabbits!
I remember reading an article in the Sunday Times last year that revealed they carry all kinds of harmful bacteria, and in many cases are half-decayed by the time they reach our fridges! I only have to look at my local Co-Op's reduced (past date) salads to see they are starting to go mushy at the bottom.
While I realise not everyone can do this, I pick wild greens for my rabbits, and can fill a carrier bag in under 10 mins with a huge variety of natural rabbit salad. One of my major projects for next year now I have a digicam, is to create a website purely to encourage people to go and pick their own, with easy recognition photos and plenty of help.
These greens will keep in my fridge, in a carrier bag, for 10-14 days without going off, so what does that tell you about the freshness of these supermarket salads? Not to mention how they were grown, or how the growers were treated by commerce.
I believe very strongly in rabbit salad... and I would love to help others to go and find these free, organically grown wild herbs for their own rabbits. The rabbits love them, and they are more nutritious (as supermarket veg have been tailored to human palates) as well as being organic and free from any of the politics and commercial pressures put upon vegetable growers.
