We all feel regret and guilt when we throw away food. 

What’s worse is throwing away nutritious, healthy fruits and vegetables! 

Oh, the humanity! 

There is a mass destruction of fruits and veggies, and it must be stopped!...

Okay, so throwing away good produce might not be as dramatic as that. But, we do have some hacks for keeping your beautiful F’s and V’s from going bad.

Hack 1: Karate CHOP!

So, maybe this hack has nothing to do with karate. (Sounded cool though, huh?)

It does, however, have to do with chopping. 

When you chop fruits and veggies, wait until right before you eat them. This will help preserve them and aid in retaining nutritional content.

Hack 2: Lemon juice

Did you know that lemon juice can prevent browning and rot?  It’s an awesome natural preservative! 

Why? The pH in lemon is acidic. This acid inactivates an enzyme in fruits in veggies called ‘polyphenol oxidase’. This prevents them from browning! 

Hack 3: Don’t keep all your produce in one basket

Just like we avoid keeping all of our “eggs in one basket”, we shouldn’t store all fruits and veggies in one basket.

Produce gives off a natural hormone called “ethylene.” This hormone causes ripening. 

Some fruits and veggies are high producers of ethylene. Others give off less and are more sensitive to it. 

Bananas emit a lot of ethylene, so keep them separate. 

When stored together, apples cause cherries and blueberries to go bad.

However, if you store apples with potatoes, then the potatoes will last longer than normal. 

Don’t store your potatoes with onions though. The onions will cause the potatoes to spoil and sprout quicker. 

It’s almost like the fruits & veggies are communicating with each other. Strange.

Hack 4: Never Waste Produce Again—Seriously

What is the best way to keep produce ‘fresh’? 

Ruvi, of course!
