I just found your channel and have enjoyed the few videos I have seen so far! Thank you so much for your fun channel that is so informative! Love from Texas! 🥰
You are a godsend! I got guinea pigs last fall and I have been trying to figure out how to store all the vegetables in the fridge for months. Thank you so much for making this video and the produce chart 🥲😊
Here is a low-budget hack for lettuces that can get you through until you get a "real" keeper: take a gallon ziplock bag, line it with 2 regular size or 3-4 select-a-size paper towels, or a bit of sack cloth or linen. Insert leafies with the cloth/paper towel acting as a liner. Seal the bag, leaving a little air inside. Stab several holes CAREFULLY and gently into the plastic bag with a paring knife or other pointy thing. This can help them last a week to two!
This video was very encouraging to me. I watched all these aesthetically pleasing videos of fridge organization with all their pretty clear bins. So my husband said I didn’t need any bins lol and so I went to cleaning and organizing my fridge without them. I was so disappointed in my fridge and then realized it was because my fridge didn’t look like these Pinterest type videos. Then I found your videos and watched about three of your fridge videos and now I see I organized my fridge correctly according to what you said about the cold areas and the crisper drawers. Now I am happy with my fridge because I see that the food goes where it is supposed to go and will last longer. Thank you!!
Aaahh! I came to conclusion a bit ago that I needed an egg drawer and haven’t been able to find one I like. This is perfect. This video is just full of great info. Thank you! I have saved it so I can come back and refer to it as I continue to work on organizing my fridge.
Thank you, Kay! After much dithering I just bought a new counter depth refrigerator. So we went from a 27 cubic foot fridge to a 21 cubic foot fridge. As I was trying to figure out whether we could fit our food (I cook a lot from scratch) in there, I also watched your videos and planned my zones and ethylene/non ethylene crispers. Everything turned out great, and the produce is lasting a lot longer, so I’ve less food waste. Thank you for all the helpful information! The blue apple and the herb keeper really are great, too. I was using the plastic bag over the glass of water before (a herb keeper was a recent purchase) but I really like my upgrade.
Thank you Kay, this was so informative, and I really don't care what my fridge looks like, as long as everything is protected and lasts as long as possible.
I’m so glad that you were looking at all the angles cost effectiveness having people grow their silicone bag collection of her time and most of all how to keep your food the freshest for as long as possible to help reduce food waste and of course save that money! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Kay. I love RUclips videos to watch when I get a chance. You are one of the only channels I've cared to watch after my dear cat Tom died. ...and that says a lot because i loved that cat.. still do love him... except he's gone. So thank you for your content and your welcoming and soothing personality
I love the Home Edit kind of pics, but you are right, they are not practical. I just put the blue apple and stasher bags in my Amazon cart. Thanks for the advice!
Thanks for the Blue Apple tip! As for bins, a few years ago, I picked up some second-hand Container Store clear drawers that the original owner used for computer cables and office supplies. Our renter-basic fridge just didn't have enough good drawer space, so I've got three of them on the top shelf for butter, cream cheese, fancy cheeses. They stack easily, glide well, provide a nice smooth surface to stack yogurt containers (versus the wire racks in the fridge.) When I went to find more, I was super bummed to see all the organizing bins in the Kitchen area of Container store had the cutout handles/holes. Then I found my exact bin over by Closet Organization. Turns out they're small shoe drawers, still totally available, and actually cheaper than those drawers named after that organizing show. So I guess my tip to others is not to be limited by how someone else categorizes something.
Those green containers are really the BEST when it comes to keeping even chopped lettuce for salads fresh. I have 3 big ones and 2 littles ones now. And because of you I have a bajillion Stasher bags now too. lol
I love the tall Weck Sturz Glass jar you have with snackin' veggies!! My fantasy fridge would be filled with glass containers with no ugly labels! Now it is filled with plastic and not very full. Ever since the pandemic started I try to eat as much fresh food as possible and just go more often and buy less. Good to see you smiling!
Great information! I totally agree with you. A fridge should keep your food fresh, not just look cute! 🤗 (BTW... I don't think that the video chapters didn't make it to the details section. 😥
Ok I'm just gonna be ballsy and ask...would you watch my today's fridge organization video and give me notes 🤷♀️🤣🥰 I mean I get that you're way too busy for that kind of homework assignment but I'm just so curious that I had to ask 🤗 I feel like we have different foods to store so your tips were definitely helpful but then I was like ooh...I totally uploaded my fridge organization today...maybe...🤔🤣😘 love you either way girl 🙌🙌🙌
I googled why we should store eggs pointy end down after hearing you say that. Lol (I’m a curious type) It is because the yolk is kept more centered and bacteria is kept away from it and the white is less bacteria friendly. Thanks for caring more about keeping food from going bad than the whole ROYGBIV Pinterest picture for your fridge.
Avocado and egg, huh? I tend to put mine next to the apples, as we like them ripe. I’m in Europe and do keep my eggs in the fridge - maybe not necessary, but it’s easier for me. They go on a shelf in a plastic egg tray some of the eggs I bought came in one day. The milk and juice go in the door in our fridge, though I know that temperature-wise it might not be the best, but as we’re a big family, it’s not really a concern. Milk gets finished in the next 24h, and juice in 2 to 3 days. :-) I do have some clear bins in the fridge (leftover packets of sauce, bags of grated cheese, etc) because otherwise stuff tends to get forgotten in the back. A couple of fruits-and-veggies Sistema bins (green grid only on the bottom and just a filtet, no adjustable vent, but it works well all the same) and a big closed bin for our Stack of Cheese. As for you ”food huggers”, Ikea has a similar product (thin silicone), and I’m rather satisfied by them. Can’t remember its name right now, though... Great refresher, Kay, thank you!
My fridge is really empty cause I stock more in the freezer and use the fridge mostly for dairy, condiments, and left overs. Which is why I am considering getting a retro mini fridge 7 cu ft and/or a separate 7 cu ft freezer. I don't like cold beverages most of the year so I don't store drinks in the fridge (only milk and juice). I add some ice for ice tea or root beer, but water I don't and juice I don't.
@@nataliebutler I only eat so much so I don't like to overstock and end up wasting food I don't finish or that goes bad before I get to it. I also prefer food fresh so I have more ready to make options in my freezer. My fridge is small, but not mini. Bigger that 7 cu ft, but smaller than a traditional American fridge. It is a rental unit so the kitchen is small overall.
Great info :) I have some produce keeper type bins for my fridge. It's a counter depth model and the 3 drawer bins aren't big enough to store all the produce. LIke your lettuce keeper, they have a reservoir for a bit of water and adjustable vents for airflow. My problem area seems to be the top shelf where all the small containers end up. Some are migrating to the back....never to be seen again. Maybe just one bin could corral some of those little guys?
That’s exactly what I do (and I also have a counter depth fridge) with all the random half used jars and sauces. They have a home on the top shelf of my fridge in a large clear plastic bin and when I need them, I just pull the whole bin out of the fridge. It’s so much easier than rummaging for items or worse yet not knowing the item is rotting away in the back of the fridge. It also works well to limit the tendency to over-buy…if the bin doesn’t have room, I don’t buy anything new. Hope this helps😉
Hi🙂 I really enjoyed your video i download the list you had in the description box and i couldn't find where you would put the celery so i just wanted to know where you put it please and thank you
I have chimed in about your fridge stuff already but i do wanna ask you re herbs...you are so good with plants why not just keep a long narrow container in the kitchen window and grow your favs? Cheaper. Fresher. Easier! Growing your own basil alone might finance the whole herb garden. Just pick what you need as you need it and theres no preserving, no waste.
Growing basil indoors is very tricky as it LOVES hot, sunny weather and creating these Ideal conditions inside can be very difficult. Some do well inside but others really struggle and you’ll end up doing much more maintenance on them than on the regular houseplants. I just got a little grow setup so that might help so we’ll see how they do! Plus cilantro requires resowing every few weeks since it grows and then kind of poops out lol
I am slowly starting to buy better produce storage. Both because of learning about them from you and because ADHD makes me not remember what is in a drawer when it is under something else.
The Ikea Stasher bags and food huggers are cheaper and better! The bags are way more secure and stand open more, plus they are cuter and pass the "cooler test"
Costco has a version of your lettuce keeper that I think is the same brand as yours & only $27 USD for 4. I've been thinking of getting anyway & with your enthusiasm for yours I'm going to try it. It's ProKeepers 4-piece Fresh Produce Keeper Set.
Kay, You are so right! Last month, I purchased some of these "designer" fridge drawers and my produce did not last as long- they do look beautiful though. I will use mine for beauty products in the linen closet. Interested in how you are storing your green onions, do they stay fresher longer that way? It looks like the whites are submerged in water- please share! ❤️
I’d love help with a problem. We just moved to a house where the only kitchen drawers are in the island and they are too tiny for most of the cutlery trays I can find. There are 4 that are 13.5” deep by 10” wide by 2.5” tall, and three that are 13.5” deep by 10” wide by 5.5” tall. So far I’ve tried grippy liner from Con-tact and the silverware all still rolls around. I’ve also tried putting onions in the lowest drawer and they molded (not as cool and dark as I thought, I guess?)! I’m basically having a lot of trouble making good storage choices for these weird drawers. Maybe you could do a video about this? Thank you for reading. Love ❤️ ❤️❤️ your channel! I was a second soprano but am probably an alto now; you totally hooked me with your channel title. 😁
I have cut up boxes to help with the drawer/cabinets! Some cereal, velvetta boxes, smaller Amazon boxes, phone boxes are good too! Aesthetically it can be chaos, but mine are not visible!
Avocados do not need to be a "problem child" :) Just run the cut avocado under cold water and then place in plastic/glass container or even plastic wrap. Your avocado will stay green/fresh longer.
Right?? I started wondering if it was an American thing. I live in the Caribbean and I had never heard about eggs expiring like that and having to watch for "expiry dates".
I purchase the smaller clamshells of greens (spring mix and spinach). I put a paper towel in the bottom and leave the greens in the clamshell, but they're often slimy within a week. I live alone so no one to help consume them. I'm thinking the OXO GreenSaver container might be the way to go?
Try the bluapple Kay uses in the video. I just bought a new refrigerator and started using them and I’ve noticed a big difference in the life of my fresh produce. I also follow Kay’s ethylene guidelines s best as I can, and that helps as well.
I got one of those drawers when I just could not live with the broken deli drawer the fridge in this house came with. The only things it's ever held is cheese and maybe a stick of pepperoni. The rest of the items that would have been in the deli drawer are in an open bin.
I recently saw a video where she put half an Avocado in a bowl of water in the fridge. I think the brown color comes when the Avocado is in contact with air, so that would probably help. Haven't tried it yet myself, but it did make sense, so thought I'd share.
I tried the avocado in water trick the other day when I saw it on another vlogger video- the avocado stayed green but it was slimy due to being submerged in water (yuk). I wasn't a fan. 😖 I do like adding lemon juice to keep it from oxidizing though, it stays fresh and also maintains the integrity of the avocado.
BUT!!!! DO try putting a perfectly ripe WHOLE avocado in a jar of water in the fridge. It stops ripening in its tracks. I've done it now for up to two weeks and my avocado is amazing.
I oftentimes buy a small bag of avocados but don't use them in time. I normally throw out overripe fruit all the time. I haven't done it once since using this tip.
OMG I have the same lettuce container- several years also. Love your channel. I am 77 yo, but still look for storage ideas. I am constantly buying cutting boards because I can't figure out where to store them, or which are food safe - eco-friendly. Any suggestions?
There's an ad for a food delivery service that I think, has discounted food, or something, but in the ad, the lady brags "My fridge is PACKED!" If she's got a big family, I guess it's good, but it looked so jammed...how could anyone find anything, and imagine the spoiled food?🙄🤦🏻♀️ I immediately think of you cringing if you see it. 😂

Thanks for scientific information about food storage!
Thank you! Finally someone that believes food not being picture perfect in the fridge. thanks for your real advise on how to keep it fresh as possible
Yes!! Finally! I am so tired of people emptying packages of food into plastic bins. Thank you for being a sane voice in the world vapid content.
I just found your channel and have enjoyed the few videos I have seen so far! Thank you so much for your fun channel that is so informative! Love from Texas! 🥰
I store cut avocados by squeezing lemon juice on the exposed fruit (?) then put in a small zip lock bag.

Just run the cut avocado under cold water and then place in plastic/glass container or even plastic wrap. Your avocado will stay green/fresh longer.
Eggs don’t perish quickly. I keep mine out of the fridge in a metal basket in a cooler spot in my kitchen.

OMG I have the same lettuce container- several years also. Love your channel. I am 77 yo, but still look for storage ideas. I am constantly buying cutting boards because I can't figure out where to store them, or which are food safe - eco-friendly. Any suggestions?
I have them in a drawer, but I used to store them with my baking sheets vertically!

my fridge doesn’t have a divided produce drawer. Just one big box

There's an ad for a food delivery service that I think, has discounted food, or something, but in the ad, the lady brags "My fridge is PACKED!" If she's got a big family, I guess it's good, but it looked so jammed...how could anyone find anything, and imagine the spoiled food?🙄🤦🏻♀️
I immediately think of you cringing if you see it. 😂
I use those clear containers in my pantry, craft room, and other areas of the house, but NOT THE FRIDGE!
Now I know why I can’t keep bananas longer than a couple days 🤦♀️ how did i not know to keep them separate from apples.

Not me moving my apples out of my fruit bowl into my fridge… 🤫
If it comes in a jar or squeeze container, it goes in the door.
