You are now being more efficient with your time and doing one supermarket shop for the week, so let’s make sure you’re storing your fruit properly to make it last.
Here are some of our most commonly used fruits:
Avocado
Banana
Kiwi
Pears
Pineapple
These fruits need to stay OUT of the fridge if they’re not fully ripe. Only after they have ripened should you refrigerate them.
Blackberries
Blueberries
Cranberries
Currants
Grapes
Raspberries
Strawberries
These fruits DO need to go in the fridge. They won’t ripen any further after being picked. They’ll just go off if you leave them at room temperature.
Apples
Lemons
Limes
Oranges
These fruits are fine either way. They won’t ripen any further if you want to keep them out in a fruit bowl. You will however get the longest life out of them if you store them in the fridge.
