1. Berries
It can be tough to store berries, as they can quickly become moldy or soggy if you don’t keep them in the proper place. It’s actually better to not refrigerate berries, on the condition that you will eat them quickly. They remain the juiciest and firmest if you keep them at room temperature.

Plus, you never want to wash berries in advance, as they’re liable to mold over. Wash them off in a colander right before eating, and remember, don’t submerge those tasty fruits! It’s also possible to keep them in your refrigerator if you won’t eat them quickly but be sure to keep them in an air-tight container. This advice applies to all sorts of berries, such as blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries.
