Always a few bad ones at the bottom, yep.

I'm convinced the raspberry companies are just shipping mold at this point.

Came here just to say this

Genuine question, how do you wash raspberries? I feel like they get mushy if I wash and leave them, so I do it right before eating them.

Whoa. I wonder why. Do you know the science behind this?

I started washing my strawberries with a little bit of vinegar, then storing them in a new container in the fridge. It's helped a lot

"you have 10 millisecond-- too late!!!"

Yep there's so many moldy ones already. I took pride in my work and made sure not to put them out for sale, but cannot say the same about some of my coworkers

I got some amazing strawberries in the summer and forgot about them in the freezer for many months. They were a little freezer burned, but I turned them into a SENSATIONAL sorbet, with some glucose syrup infused with mint leaves, a little lime juice, and a whisper of xanthan gum. I use this double-bowl method for making ice creams and sorbets.

Every Costco seems to have a mold problem. If you dont eat or freeze stuff from them that can get moldy expect it to within like 3 days. And this has been true of 3 states

Who told you about my inner hillbilly?

Get a banana hanger. It provides better airflow and keeps the ethylene gas that bananas emit from stagnating around them. This gas is what ripens the fruit so fast. In fact, you can put other fruits around bananas and they'll ripen faster as well.

The other benefit is that it helps prevent bruising on the bottom of the bananas and makes them last longer as well.

You can have bananas last for up to 2 weeks with this method.
