I’m sure most of us have a few rolls of paper towel in the kitchen at all times. And although this household product is great for cleaning and wiping up spills, paper towel can also work wonders in the fridge. Yes – in the fridge! It may sound odd, but paper towels are the secret weapon when it comes to keeping produce fresh for longer.
According to Reader’s Digest, paper towels in the fridge are actually a great way to ensure that your vegetables stay fresh for an even longer period of time. This is a great solution for those who are looking to enjoy their vegetables and are tired of watching them wither away inside of the fridge.
It all starts by lining your produce drawer with paper towels every single time that you bring some fresh produce home.
The hack works best as long as the paper towels are replaced each time. If the produce is brought home inside of a singular bag, throw a paper towel inside with them.
The other helpful aspect of this comes into play when the produce drawer is not getting as dirty as it once did. That’s a major plus for those who do not want to spend their days cleaning the fridge.
