How to fresh everyone

Most refrigerators have enough moisture to keep your products fresh and crisp, so you don't want to add extra moisture. Any additional moisture residues in your product will affect its shelf life. Excess moisture can cause your fresh food to wilt, so paper keeps it fresh for longer and also keeps your refrigerator clean, which is an extra effort that no one deserves when it is spent wiping cucumbers on their hard-earned Sunday.    ^{Show Sources}

The ethylene gas [PDF] in fruits such as apples and bananas is released very quickly. Some producers emit this gas, but other products are more sensitive to it. Ethylene producers of fruits and vegetables such as apples, pears, avocados, bananas, ripe onions, peaches, and tomatoes are ethylene producers.    ^{Show Sources}

Asparagus, cabbage, cauliflower, cucumbers, leafy vegetables, and carrots are all ethylene-sensitive foods. Be sure to keep carrots high in ethylene-producing fruits and vegetables such as apples and pears (as noted by the folks at Sweetwater Organic Farm), as this will speed up the ripening and wilting process. Keep ethylene-sensitive foods away from ethylene-producing foods to prolong their lifespans.   ^{Show Sources}

Fresh produce such as carrots, oranges, apples, and pears can stay in the fridge for up to two weeks. If you keep carrots moist and refrigerator green, you can enjoy crisp, fresh carrots for months.

Mango, plums, peaches, and pears can be stored at room temperature or refrigerated for ripening. The bananas, potatoes, and onions you buy come in perforated plastic bags so that they last longer when you take them out and let them breathe. Herbs have a short shelf life and start to go bad after one or two days.    ^{Show Sources}

To ensure that your products last as long as possible, we have compiled a list of how to store them, including how to cool what's leftover on the counter. Cool the products to stay fresh by zipping the plastic bag or sealing the reusable silicone bag in a container with a tight-fitting lid. The container will absorb moisture and prevent the products from drying out, and it will help protect sensitive products from the effects of ethylene gas.    ^{Show Sources}
