Time to store food correctly
A large amount of food waste comes from improper storage. Because most people are not aware of proper storage rules, their fresh veggies, and fruits tend to rot really fast. So, do you think you know how to store your food correctly? For example… Did you know that tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, onions, and garlic should never be refrigerated?
All these food items should be placed at room temperature. Another important step when it comes to proper storage is separating the food items that produce ethylene gas from the ones that don’t. So, foods like avocados, peaches, bananas, tomatoes, pears, cantaloupes, and green onions should never be placed with apples, peppers, berries, potatoes, and leafy greens.
