  • Potatoes and sweet potatoes

    Don’t refrigerate.
    Store in a cool, dark place with relatively high humidity.
    Allow air circulation.
    Keep separate from onions, bananas, and other ethylene-producing items.

  • Other roots and tubers

    Remove any leafy green tops.
    Refrigerate in a plastic bag for the longest life.
    For a shorter term (up to two weeks), store loose in your crisper drawer.

  • Onions and garlic

  • Cabbage and its cousins

    Refrigerate in sealed containers.
    Uncut heads can be refrigerated without a bag.
    Once cut, seal in an airtight container.
