Fresh Lettuce Longer!

Tired of buying fresh lettuce only to throw it out two days later because it has browned and wilted? Then keep these tips in mind to help keep your lettuce fresher longer:

Use air tight storage bags to store your lettuce, versus using the plastic bags that you buy your lettuce in.

Avoid pre-bagged lettuce, as it has already been preserved, and is well on its way to spoiling.

Do not store your lettuce in metal pans. This also speeds up the spoiling process and is not recommended to preserve the freshness of your lettuce.

Use the crisper in your refrigerator. The crisper actually does keep foods like lettuce and other vegetables crispier and therefore fresher.

Try using items like Tupperware's Fridgesmart that helps to preserve lettuce through the design of the container.
