Money Saving Tip #186: Storing Fruit and Veggies in the Refrigerator

Where to store fruit and vegetables varies between person to person and generation to generation.  To get the most out of your produce, store most vegetables in the high-humidity drawer in your refrigerator.  Most of your fruits should be stored in the lower-humidity drawer. 

Don't mix your fruit and vegetables together.  The gases from one type of produce may cause the others to ripe much more quickly.  I have a separate basket for my bananas and onions that I store on my counter.
