To avoid cut Apples 🍎🍏 from turning brown squeeze some Lime/Lemon 🍋 Juice on the unpeeled part of the Apple 🍎. Same goes for avocados 🥑. Adri 🕊

[@vickymarinou6271]

You can keep cucumbers fresh in the fridge if you put them in a paperbag and then in a plastic bag. Check after a few days to make sure the bag is not too wet. If it is then change the bag to a fresh one. I've kept cucumbers fresh in the fridge for up to two weeks using this method. This also works well for zucchini.

[@Briancollison]

citrus fruit keeps longer in a fridge, they always go mouldy at room temperature I found.

[@patriciafloyd5320]

I learned a lot about storing vegetables, I use quite often. Thank you.

[@larrybe2900]

For keeping bananas, (cut) each banana''s stem away from the common bunch. This will self seal the stem instead of using foil. Do this as soon as you bring the bunch home.

[@KrishaMarcano]

This was so informative!!!! I've been doing almost everything wrong. Thank you for saving me money and from disappointment.

[@InvestingHustler]

I just put them in the freezer before they go bad. Then eventually blend them when I make a protein shake 😋

[@ThePainterr]

You had me running around the kitchen this morning separating fruits and veg, and repacking them...lol.....thanks for the info!

[@Wguy56]

I've done the alum foil celery storage for many years, but I've always encased the leaves as well. I will split a stalk into two halves next time and try it both ways to see if either is better. And, yes, I can usually keep it about a month.

[@marysunshine2027]

So many unrelated comments. Looking for signs of intelligent life. This video will help me save money. I didn't know you shouldn't store tomatos in the fridge

[@crystaldblevins]

I did not know either.

[@glorykaaya7034]

Me neither🤦🏿

[@Arnell_Mediocrity_Long]

Haha, my family has been putting Tomatoes n the fridge since I was a toddler. We put most Fruit and Vegetables in the fridge.

[@TheVetusMores]

It won't make them spoil sooner, but the low temperature causes them to lose their flavor.

[@ceciliag2929]

Arnell Long @ 😂 yours and mine too

[@lindal.8861]

Thanks for all the great tips. 🥑 I just learned to first let an avocado ripen. The brown stem on the end will easily be taken off when ripe. Then you can put it uncut in the refrigerator to keep it fresh for a couple of days. I tried it, and it worked.🥑

[@lathaca7154]

Very informative and helpful. It'll be easier to remember if they are grouped by the technique of storage, like, those in paper bags, lemon, vinegar, etc.,

[@kindnessconnection6836]

That was informative and I will utilized each and every one of the suggestions. Thanks again

[@SunriseLAW]

2:00 leave tomatoes on a counter and they last for weeks? Fruit flies normally appear pretty fast.

[@Africanknight88]

And another point on bananas 🍌...make sure you hang them from a hook suspended in there natural state to while wrapping the tips on the bushel. Helps tremendously! And also bananas peels make great fertilizer!

[@glorykaaya7034]

Cool

[@Joy-wg9nd]

Thank you so much. I am going to use every tip. I can't tell you how many decades I could have used these tips.

[@TheMariagonz]

Cilantro - dry completely when you get it home completely cover it in paper towel and cover it with aluminum foil it will last you 3 -4 weeks in the fridge.

[@divine1551]

Bright Side coming through at the right time again lol 💕🌷

[@talon310calif]

Saving this video. Too much to remember. Thanks for the tips!

[@infinitygaming2346]

Hey! The new intro is awesome and fantastic. If you don't find it awesome then I don't know what is awesome to you.

[@BRIGHTSIDEOFFICIAL]

Harsh Verma do you like it more than the old one?

[@infinitygaming2346]

@@BRIGHTSIDEOFFICIAL Yes, why not. The intro of such an awesome channel must be awesome. Post more and more interesting videos on the ' Bright Side of Life '. Can you make a video on numbers, I mean number system from 0 to hundred, thousand, million, billion, trillion, ........ and so on. I would be very happy if make a video on that

[@TheSuperHarrygeorge]

I have always kept tomatoes and other salad items in the chiller drawer and they last longer than being out on a work top or in a cupboard. Have proved this time and time again.

[@angelsummers6555]

Yes but i think he is saying they lose their flavour

[@Pippins666]

...but makes the tomatoes tasteless ...that's assuming you buy decent tomatoes, supermarket buyers have emphasised shelf life over everything else, and taste has effectively been bred out. With tomatoes, you get what you pay for

[@MoreLocations]

Awesome 👍🏻. Thanks for the great information.

[@BRIGHTSIDEOFFICIAL]

More Locations you’re always welcome!

[@tabrezsayed7552]

THIS INTRO IS AWESOME .....😀😁😂😂🤣🤣😃😄😅😍

[@crystalsanders4334]

Yes here is a tip. After your Avocado ripe store them in a bowl of water in Fridge they will last up to a week and a half without Riping further i have tried it. Prefer Filterd water.

[@hardeepkaur2753]

Thanks million from Kenya for the tips

[@pamelarodriguez4879]

Potatoe storage. Put your potatoes in a bowl put in a layer of paper towels on the bottom of bowl& add some potatoes another layer of paper towels. Do not cover with any lid. Change the top layer of paper once too wet. Keeping them in the fridge helps them not to sprout or very little. Pls make sure you use a nice size bowl. U could also use an disposable roasting pan layered with paper towels

[@井手上利男]

I love fruit when i born before :) It's very good idea and sources

Great now I got to go and clean out the Fridge now.🙃

[@mslgizzle]

I have a one-up on the avocado trick boi, yes the citrus way works OK...Try: ‘After storing half the avocado, simply put a rung out paper towel that was drenched all up in the green and gently press the wet paper towel against the avocado. This was a ‘whim’ method but the BEST method!:)

[@trudybongers3534]

Thanks for your ideas and lessons learned 💕🌺💕🌺💕🌺💕🌺💕 greetings from Roermond in the Netherlands 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

[@twocents6951]

[@ianward7140]

I don't have to stress about Banana's going to waste anymore, thank u I didn't know you can freeze them 👍

[@sljjj3]

Very useful and relevant during this special time😜

[@denal0u]

My mom puts a piece of bread in with her potatoes. Also when she makes a banana cake. She uses a lil bit of lemon juice to keep the bananas from turning brown.

[@7Seveneleven7715]

Eyes of the cucumber is the cutest 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@djohnson3678]

im confused about the ginger root. . . . should it be wrapped up to keep the Freon from mixing with the herb to keep it from tasting or being freezer burnt? and if so, then what type of wrapping. awesome video !! 3000 thumbs up !!

[@cuprunnethover2509]

I read that you should keep oranges and avocados in the fridge to make them stay fresh longer and not spoil too quickly. It works.

[@StacyForest738]

[@gp6892]

[@razorXblueXeyes]
