Proper storage of fresh produce can affect both quality and safety.
Keep your refrigerator set at 40° F or below. Use a fridge thermometer to check!
To maintain quality of fresh produce:
• Certain perishable fresh fruits and vegetables (like strawberries, lettuce, herbs, and mushrooms) can be best maintained by storing in a clean refrigerator at a temperature of 40° F or below. If you're not sure whether an item should be refrigerated to maintain quality, ask your grocer.
• All produce that is purchased pre-cut or peeled should be refrigerated to maintain both quality and safety.
