A contender for the most boring thread ever .. where do you keep your fruit?

[Twiglett]

only ask because Ocado delivers it in the fridge bag .. and I've never kept fruit in the fridge its in the fruit bowl

i keep some in the fridge and some out. I fill up the fruit bowl, then any extra goes in the fridge. The only fruit I don't ever keep out of the fridge is grapes.

Most fruit I keep in the fridge as it tastes better IMO but bananas I keep on the side in a bowl with oranges and tangerines etc

Grapes in fridge, apples, pears, oranges and narnas in bowl on table so dses can stuff themselves.

Boring threads generally aren't

Our fruit lives in the fruit bowl. (So do lots of other things, but that's a different thing really)

I put half my bananas in the fridge, they keep longer

We're the same as PiccadilyCircus - fruit in fruit bowl along with receipts, letters, keys and glasses. Only fruit that goes in fridge is in summer all the berry type fruits

lol ....nearly all our fruit is in the salad drawers of the fridge....bananas on the work surface and cooking apples in the garage...sometimes potatoes and carrots too at this time of year as it's so cold at night in there..

In the fruit bowl except for strawberries, raspberries etc. Sometimes put bananas in a separate bowl because of their ripening properties. To be even more pedantic I keep the fruit bowl on the hall because the kitchen and dining room are both south facing with big windows and in the summer the fruit does not keep

So do bananas last longer if kept in the fridge then? I've never tried (usually because the fridge is choc a bloc after the shopping delivery) and am usually left with nasty black fertilising smelling bananas after a few days.

i keep most of my veg in the fridge too, apart from potatoes and onions

yes they do, especially if you put the green ones in

me too lou - all veg in fridge except potatoes and onions

you see mushrooms aren't in the Ocado fridge bag ... they're in the cupboard bag

am feeling like I've been getting it wrong all these years

i put mushrooms in the fridge.

mushrooms definitely in a paper bag (never plastic as they go all manky) in the fridge.

All veg (inc onions & mushrooms but not potatoes) in fridge.

I always thought you couldn't put bananas in the fridge because they'd go black. Like they do in the freezer.

Most fruit I put in a fruit bowl on the dinner table. Veggies go in the fridge, as I have no other space for it elsewhere.

mine dont go black unless they touch the back of the fridge itself.

Grapes and strawberries in the fridge, along with excess clementines/satusmas, apples and pears - we have a fruit bowl in the living room on the dining table, it's the only thing the kids can eat without asking first. Bananas sit on top of the microwave (which is on top of the fridge!) I like putting fridge fruit in their packed lunches as it keeps everything cold (I freeze their yogurts too)

Salad stuff/mushrooms/avacados go in the fridge, every other vegetable goes in the larder until it goes mouldy! I should just stick to the frozen stuff.

So you can put bananas in the fridge then? I make ds' pack lunch the nigh before and put it in the fridge, and then have to remember to add the banana in the morning - for some reason I thought you couldn't put them in the fridge...

It's amazing what you learn on MN - I always thought bananas went black in the fridge...

honestly i do it all the time.

And if you only use half a banana, and want to keep it, pop it back in the fridge in it's skin, it keeps for a few more days.

fruit bowl apart for summer fruits which live in the fridge. Potatoes etc in the veg drawer, mushrooms in the fridge.

BUT dh thinks me quite odd int hat I keep all jams, marmalades etc in the fridge as well (as do my parents and brother

WOW my life will now be that bit easier - no more needing to remember to add the banana to the pack lunch in the morning

I keep jam in the fridge too
