If you're fed up with your apples getting bruised and going bad before you've had a chance to eat them, then one expert has shared a simple storage hack
If you're aiming to extend the shelf life of your apples, consider storing them on their own. NRC Business Waste experts recommend wrapping each apple individually to prevent a single spoiled fruit from affecting the rest.
"The apple must be perfect - this means no bruises, no cuts, and no insect damage. Additionally, the stem should remain intact, as a broken or missing stem can lead to faster spoilage." Paul said: "To keep your apples in prime condition, pack them in a dry, aerated material. Options include sawdust, grains, heat-dried sand, or even newspaper. These materials help absorb excess moisture, which can lead to rot, while also providing a breathable environment that keeps apples from suffocating or becoming damp.
"By isolating each apple, you ensure that the others remain unaffected, which can significantly extend their freshness."
