Why do my fruit & veggies go bad so quickly?
Am I produce challenged??? Seriously, even cucumber with mold within a week? Get's me to asking two questions:
How on earth does the "humidity control" work on the fridge drawers? Do we open all the way or close them?
And-what do you refridgerate and leave out? We have tried every combination but now I just left out bananas, nectarines and plums. Grapes, strawberries, carrots, broccoli, green beans are in the fridge. Avocado, onions and potatoes are out. What about sweet potatos? tomatoes?
Are you talking about Debbie's GREEN BAGS?
They are crap. I bought into the whole thing too. . and ended up wasting $10. They don't work any better than regular plastic bags. Consumer Reports just did an "expose" on them in the last issue of Smart Shopping.
My fridge drawers are prelabeled FRUIT and VEG and the humidity corresponds to what you push the dial to, if that makes any sense and I don't have a lot of mold issues. Incidentally what I have found that works great is this little green disk I picked up for about $3 at Walmart, by the bananas. It's supposed to collect some type of gas that produces gives off and makes it spoil. It's worked so far. I get an extra 4 days on some things and longer on others.
