Few things make me more frustrated than food waste. Especially with the price of fresh produce these days, it pains me to see fruits and veggies go bad before we’ve had a chance to finish them. This is where paper towel comes in. Before placing your produce in the crisper drawers, line them with paper towel. If you have bags of spinach or lettuce, add a sheet or two of paper towel into these bags as well.
Over time, your fruits and veggies release the water they’ve been storing. When produce sits in this water for periods of time, it becomes soggy and wilts. The paper towel absorbs this excess moisture, leaving your fruits and veggies fresher for longer.
Maybe you already knew about this hack, but if you didn’t, now is the time to try it! Something as simple as a few sheets of paper towel can make all the difference when it comes to storing your produce, decreasing your food waste, and saving you money in the long run.
