Keep Your Kiwi Kickin’: Storage Hacks to Make It Last Over 2 Weeks!

Buy Firm, Not Soft: Choose kiwis that are slightly firm. They’ll ripen slowly, giving you more control over when to eat them.

Separate the Ripe Ones: Ripe kiwis should be kept apart from unripe ones to prevent over-ripening from the ethylene gas they release.

Refrigerate Immediately: Once ripe, pop them in the fridge! Cold temps slow ripening and keep them fresh longer.

Store in a Ventilated Bag: A breathable produce bag helps kiwis get air without drying out.

Don’t Wash Until Ready to Eat: Washing too early adds moisture and increases the risk of spoilage.

Use a Container with a Lid: Airtight containers reduce exposure to air and help retain moisture balance.

Freeze for Long-Term Storage: Peel, slice, and freeze your kiwis to use later in smoothies or desserts.

Check Often: Give them a gentle squeeze every few days to monitor ripeness and use the softest ones first.
