Farmer's Market - will food keep?
I'm thinking about going to the farmer's market in town on the way to dinner with friends Sat night. If I get fruits/veggies/bread/etc...will it all keep in the HOT car for a few hours? Also, is it really cheaper to buy from farmers markets? Anyone have any examples? :)
