I rolled my eyes at flower food packets for years, but a wilted wedding bouquet made me test it.

Had a bride's bouquet start to droop after just two hours in the heat last July. In a panic, I mixed up the packet that came with the roses, something I never bothered with before. The stems perked up noticeably within an hour and lasted the whole reception. Has anyone else been stubborn about a basic tool or trick that actually works?

It's funny how we'll ignore the simple fix right in front of us (like reading the manual) and go straight to complaining when things break.
