Potatoes and avocados, two beloved foods, also have their own storage requirements. Whole potatoes should be kept in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated space, not in the fridge. Cold temperatures can convert the starch in potatoes into sugar more rapidly, which can alter their flavor. If you live in a hot climate and don’t have a cool space, you can store them in the fridge for up to a week.
When it comes to avocados, refrigeration depends on their ripeness. If you have a green avocado that’s not yet ripe, it’s best to leave it unrefrigerated until it’s fully ripened. Refrigerating an unripe avocado can significantly delay its ripening process. However, if you want to wait a few days to eat a ripe avocado, you can store it in the fridge to prolong its freshness. To help it last even longer, wrap the avocado in a towel or paper bag to absorb any extra moisture.
