it's called EDITING :P

What a gal!

There was a pun? I must've filtered that one out. I guess it's just part of bean human.

Even in tropical areas, chips and biscuits can be stored in air tight containers. That way you can save space in your fridge for important things like tomatoes and veggies.

@@itsover9008 I live in a tropical area. Believe me, nothing is fully airtight, and the air that does get in is moist enough to make things turn soft, given enough time. Then there's high temperatures and mold. I'm not taking about moderate climates, this is near the equator, tropical rainforest.

In a dry climate you definitely don't put chips in the fridge, its more humid inside the fridge than outside it.

Tomatoes are best kept on the kitchen counter with bananas.

@@carrieullrich5059 If I do that here, they're rotten in a few days and birds fly into the kitchen to get their part from day one. The media make it look like everyone lives in Europe or the USA, the world and the world's kitchens are much more diverse than that.

What about things like jam or ketchup that say “once opened refrigerate and use within 3weeks”

The goal is to keep it dry, and keep the aromatics inside. Frozen in a sealed bag works fine. A sealed canister on the counter by the coffee maker is fine for quick use... If your container is left a little bit open in the fridge, humidity makes it taste worse. Freezer is best in most climates because badly sealed in the freezer lets in little humidity... So small container with this weeks grounds on the counter... Larger container in a freezer if one's available... Cool dry place if one isn't... Dry being key.

It doesn't have a high enough water content to freezer burn. I used to get mail order coffee. We kept bags we hadn't started on in the freezer and the current weeks container sealed on the counter, along with partial bags sealed in the freezer... It keeps the humidity level from substantially changing. You won't regret it. Its fine for up to a year in a freezer.

Best practice is to store them like the supermarket sells them. There are a few ways of processing and cleaning the shells to remove the risk of ecoli from the exterior. Depends on the method used will dictate storage conditions. In Australia, you'll want to store most things in the fridge as the majority of products like cool environments. 40 degrees Celsius for most ingredients isn't fantastic

@Heloise O'Byrne sorry. I'm dyslexic.

Depends on where you are. In the US, eggs are washed and so have to be kept in the fridge. In the UK, eggs are unwashed and can be stored without refrigeration - although the fridge will extend their shelf life.

@@baldieman64 I'm UK based. And worked in a childs nursery years ago. I've since given up catering. I once asked the environmental health officer that came round. And asked her, and explained we got our shopping online from asda or sainsburys. Even she understood what I was asking and saying. But she agreed to a point. But said best practice to keep in fridge.

Mhhh, eggs yes if you live in a country that requires eggs to be washed and doesn't vaccinate chickens for salmonella. In the US you really need to refrigerate eggs - chickens here are not vaccinated and eggs are required to be washed. That exposes them to all sorts of bacteria. Unrefrigerated eggs in the US are a big no-no.

Most people know that keeping tomatoes in a fridge spoils the flavor.

@@capodad2u never found that myself but hey each to their own

@@uweschroeder @Uwe Schroeder wow food in the US sounds horrible...chicken washed in chlorine, GM food, hormones for cows and now dirty salmonella eggs!!!!

It is, the FDA is pretty much run by food and drug companies.

no one cares

It seems the only things discussed where those he and his wife disagreed on lol. Everything you have said is true but my question is why do people's bread last them so long? If you are buying the right amount of produce, then the amount of time in storage and where to store it becomes less of a problem.

@@nathanthom8176 For someone like me buying bread is a problem. Bread comes in loafs and generally don't need more than a few slices a month. So it's either freezing it or trying to store it. I started to bake my own sourdough bread years ago because it's almost impossible to find good bread in the US, at least for a price you want to afford (and a quality you want - or better I want since I grew up where there's at least 200 different types of bread, probably more). There are great bakeries where I live but sorry, $12 for a loaf of bread is like $9 too many. Homemade bread is better and cheaper but comes with the same problem: I don't eat much bread and frozen is ok when toasted but just not fresh. Bread is one of these items you can't really buy in a small portion and thus have to store somehow. In general though I agree with you: if you plan ahead and shop responsibly you shouldn't have a ton of produce sitting around. Exceptions for me are items on sale and bread.

You can keep a banana in a fridge. Why you dont thinks so? And agree with the rest!

@@MrWnw Bananas go over-ripe and rotten very quickly if in a cold area such as a fridge. That is why they are not in a refrigerated unit when you buy them.

@@MrWnw A chilled banana won't ripen. It goes a grey colour quite soon after chilling and this is a way of checking whether the shop has been storing them correctly (especially in the colder months). If you see grey-green bananas, leave them on the shelf. You could chill a fully ripe banana if you expect to eat it within about a day and you can include sliced banana in a chilled or frozen desert. My background? I spent 6 years as a greengrocer. When our delivery arrived we always brought the bananas in first.

@@trevorenever265 Yep, thats my point: banana doesnt go overripe in fridge.

Bananas and tomatoes lower in flavor when they're too cold. If you want to lower the quality of those items, chill them... Don't chill them sometime and taste the improvement in flavor... Eat them the day you buy them.

bro, in the trash can? do you have a vendetta with coffee or something? if you don't like coffee personally that's fine, but now you've picked a fight. why do you hate coffee so much?

But he did give the reason? He literally said the oils and aroma from coffee is quite volatile and to store it in a way that prevents those vapours from escaping. Why comment on a video if you didn't even watch it? What a waste of time.

But if you don't drink coffee, shouldn't you buy it in the first place? putting it in the garbage is just such a waste of food. So yeah, not the best answer....

@@danipark5198 Since I do not buy it, but if it is given to me. But thanks for not having good reading comprehension.

@@Veevslav1 You're welcome 😊

@@Veevslav1 I would think you would refuse to accept the coffee being offered to you instead of effectively lie to the giver and taking it, then throwing in the garbage. That would be disingenuous. Maybe you misunderstood what was written? :)

So true. But it's been around for ages. Companies put money into false studies so things rot quicker and we buy more. Coffee in an air tight container in the fridge for months and months, our coffe is fine after a year in the fridge, still tastes the same
