How can I tell if my produce is spoiled?

How can I tell if my produce is spoiled?

You can look for signs like discoloration, a mushy texture, or an off smell. What specific produce are you concerned about?

I'm worried about my strawberries. They looked fine yesterday.

Check for any mold, a sour smell, or if they feel mushy. If they have any of these signs, it's best to discard them.

What about my bananas? They seem a bit brown.

Brown spots on bananas are normal as they ripen, but if they are overly mushy or have a strong odor, they may be spoiled.

Thanks! Are there any tips to store produce to prevent spoilage?

Yes! Keep fruits and vegetables in separate drawers, use breathable bags, and check them regularly for any signs of spoilage.
