Toilet paper isn’t just for cleaning. It’s also a clever way to keep your fruit and vegetables fresher for longer. Find out how a simple trick like this can transform your food organization and reduce waste.
The toilet paper trick: how does it work?
Fruits and vegetables naturally give off moisture when stored in the refrigerator. This excess moisture can build up in drawers, causing produce to wilt or spoil prematurely.
Paper towels absorb this excess water, helping to keep your food crisp, fresh and tasty for longer.
How to Use Toilet Paper to Store Your Products
Follow these simple steps to maximize the freshness of your food:
Cover the bottom of the vegetable drawers
Place one or two sheets of paper at the bottom of each crisper drawer in your refrigerator.
Add your fresh fruits and vegetables
Place your products directly on the toilet paper, without overloading the drawers.
Replace towels regularly
Change them as soon as they become damp, especially after adding new food to the bin.
Veggie Bag Tip
For produce stored in plastic bags (lettuce, spinach, fresh herbs), place a paper towel inside to absorb excess moisture.
