Potatoes need to be kept in the dark – a dark coloured cloth bag is best. This stops them from going green.

What a great post mate. I shared it on my Facebook page. We also separate the veg and fruit and never put tomatoes in the refrigerator. These tips are great to save money. We often buy from the reduced rack and can get a few days out of the produce if there is a ding in it but normally eat it right way with-in a day or 2 or freeze it.

Here is an idea that i found on Pinterest. The original link is broken or i would have posted that. Cleaning fruit – fill sink with water, add 1 C. vinegar, mix. Add all fruit and soak for 10 minutes. Water will be dirty and fruit will sparkle with no wax or dirty film. I don’t see why this wouldn’t work it vegetables as well, except those like mushroom that absorb water.
