The best way to store fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator is to keep them in separate sealed containers or zip-top bags. Make sure to clean and dry the produce thoroughly before storing it in the fridge as any excess moisture can cause fruits and vegetables to spoil. Additionally, some fruits and vegetables produce ethylene gas, so it's best to separate items with different levels of sensitivity. For example, ripening fruits such as apples and bananas should be kept away from other produce that may spoil faster due to the gas.
