RE: How long can spiral ham stay in refrigerator? I bought a Publix Grocery Store brand Ham on Saturday 11/17 for thanksgiving and was wondering how long I could keep it in the refrigerator before Thanksgiving 11/22? Should I freeze it?
Plums are generally in season somewhere in the United States from the end of May all the way into October. The varieties that have their origins in Japan ripen first, and the European varieties, which we usually refer to as prune plums, ripen later.
Good quality plums will feature a rich color and may still have a slight whitish bloom, reflecting that they have not been overhandled. They should also be free of punctures, bruises or any signs of decay. Plums are generally available in the marketplace from May through the early fall. Plums that are not yet ripe can be left at room temperature. As this fruit tends to mature quickly, check on them in the next day or two to ensure that they do not become overripe.
