General produce storage tips27
• Consider using bags specifically designed to provide ideal storage conditions for fresh produce while absorbing ethylene gas
• Don't zip-seal fresh produce in regular, air-tight plastic storage bags or containers; this starts the decaying process and promotes bacterial or mold growth
