Winter Fruit Woes? Keep Them Fresh for Weeks with These Simple Tricks!

• Avoid plastic bags and sealed containers; open baskets allow air circulation, preventing mold.
• Separate ethylene-producing fruits (bananas, apples) from citrus to prevent rapid spoilage.
• Use newspaper or tissue paper to absorb excess moisture and keep fruits fresh longer.
• Arrange fruits in a single layer to prevent crushing and accelerate spoilage.
• Store fruits unwashed and only wash them right before consumption to avoid moisture-induced spoilage.
