Were is the best place to store fresh fruit?
Answers:
cool dry place.
Remember bananas rippen othe fruit
In the fruit bin of your refridgerator...It always works for me!

in a fruit bowl. sounds basic but sometimes the old ways are the best!
They're both right. the big plastic box at the bottom of your fridge is the best place because it is cool, but not the coldest, it's dark and it's dry. but don't put banana's in cos they will ripen other fruit much more quickly. Banana's are best left on the windowsill for a couple of days to go really ripe and then mashed up in custard and microwaved!
"hard" fruit is best in the fridge's crisper drawer, but "soft" fruit (think --- does it squish when it's ripe?) is always better ripened in room temp, out of the sun, and off of hard surfaces (they bruise delicate flesh). A fruit bowl is fine, just put a clean, soft, dry towel under fruit and turn occasionally to prevent bruises.
Tip: if you like your bananas soft and sweet but not brown and bruised, get a banana hanger from your local kitchen gadget outlet.
keep it on the tree.
Depends what kind:
- Bananas, melons, grapefruit and citrus fruits should be kept at room tempreture in a fruit bowl.
- Grapes, cherries and berry fruits are best kept in the fridge.
- Other foods such as apples, pears and plums can be put in the fridge if prefered but are fine left out in a fruit bowl as well.
away from my children as they eat it before I can store it!!!
Seriously though store in a cool place
In your tummy!
When I was a child we used to visit my grandparents who had a veg patch and small fruit garden. They laid out the cooking apples under the big old iron frame bed and all over the wood flooring, not touching. in the spare bedroom.. Eating apples in the main bedroom spreading out over the floor, with a pathway leading to the bed.
Tomatoes all over every windowsills, ones that did not turn red were made into chutney. Marrows were hung in my gran's old stockings and cooked for Christmas my grandad having to use a saw to slice them. My gran's stockings were also used to hang other fruit and veg and the old wooden airer which was on a pulley in the kitchen had grapes and dried flowers hanging from it.
As a child I never found out where they dried or stored their clothes!
