Vegetable sticks

Hi, I need to fill 500 small sized Ziploc bags with vegetables for an upcoming children's event. We are going to use carrot sticks, celery sticks, cucumber slices and perhaps broccoli to fill up the bags. How many pounds each of vegetables should I purchase to make 500 bags?

If you see the veggie tray page, it tells how many pieces come from a bought pound of each type vegetable. This makes it easy to figure how much you need- just deciide what will go in each bag and multiply.

You will know you are right if it comes out to about 100 pounds vegetables total.

Cherry or grape tomatoes would be a good alternative to broccoli- many small children don't like raw florets too much.
