Pro tip: I was wrong about flower food packets

For years I told customers to skip the little packets, thinking they were just a gimmick. Then last month I did a test with two identical bouquets of white roses, one with the food and one without plain tap water. The one with the packet stayed fresh for a full 9 days, while the other started drooping after 4. I mean, it really does work. Has anyone else done a side by side test like that?

Yeah, the "I was wrong" part really hits home. I've been there with other stuff, thinking something was just a marketing trick. It's kind of a relief when the test proves it though.

Same with those dishwasher rinse aid packets.
