So, I bring lunch to work every day. An iced tea, fiber brownie, fruit and an entree. I’d like to buy some kind of fruit in bulk and leave it in the fridge to have through the week so that I can’t forget to pack it, and I always have fruit. I know a lot of fruit suffer bruises from being in the fridge as opposed to hanging in a bag. Any recommendations for something that will keep nicely?

    All of them.

    I might be weird, but in my opinion, there is not a single fruit that does not last longer or taste better when it is stored in the fridge.

    Also keeps away those pesky fruit flies.

      Generally correct, however there are exceptions. Bananas are absolutely wrecked in the fridge

      Edit… unripened pineapple too in my experience. In both cases they don’t ripen properly. Bananas end up hard and bullet like, and pineapple stays more tart and ends up with almost a woody texture

        Funny, I find Bananas benefit the most by being stored in the fridge.

        Yes, the peel gets greyish eventually but the inside stays good to eat for much longer.

        Oh well, to each their own I guess.
