Can I use this to store lettuce in? Will it make the lettuce last longer/stay fresher in the fridge?

That is not what is for but it might just work to store lettuce. I have the small salad spinner so it would have to be a small had of lettuce.

what is the best way to store? in the past a drop of water in a bag in the fridge would keep it moist to pop better, any other suggestions about best storage re: freshness:-)

Since I have not used the "Tupperware" product, I cannot really compare. However, this lettuce keeper works well. The lettuce is kept very fresh. I even had one party tell me she purchased it to hold cookie dough until ready for baking.

Depends on the juice ,how cool the fridge is, and where in the fridge it is placed. If you want to store it for longer than three days I would suggest freezing it.

It will leave it dryer, but it still won't be as dry as store bought. The advantage to this spinner is that you can spin a much larger qty than you could with the OXO. I spin the lettuce then layer it in a plastic storage box between paper towels. This seems to soak up any remaining water.

Because you are keeping cut onions fresher longer, it is always stored in the fridge. It also keeps the fridge fresher as odors don't escape.

Yes! I have used it for about one year. I use this exact system with the necessary jar adapter (which you do have to buy separately) such as here: http://amzn.com/B00005TN7H/?tag=statistics-20. This vacuum sealer + the jar adapter + wide mouth mason jars. I can make salads on Sunday and have crispy salads for 4-5 days by sealing them this way. Saves money (I'd never use a whole head of lettuce otherwise), saves the environment (glass mason jars will last forever, just sometimes buy new lids). Enjoy. This is a great system for leftovers or planned-ahead meals.

Yes, I believe it is recommended to keep it in the fridge after opening. Frankly I didn't like the product so whatever purpose you did buy I hope it will be serving you. Good luck. Wish you the best.

you could put 1 (1)gal container into fridge but it would take up most of the room.. This would leave you enough room to store a few more items.

I put the open bag in the crisper with the apple. Yes it definitely extends the life of leafy greens. I have kept lettuce for three weeks.

I doesn't say on the bottle that it has to be refrigerated. Honestly, I just do it because I refrigerate all my other salad dressings. I've left it out by mistake a few times and I didn't notice any ill effects. They really should specify on the bottle either way. If your refrigerator temp is set to chill at a low temp (like mine) then you'll have to let it sit awhile so you can pour it. Hope this helps...

No it does not have to be stored in the fridge. Treat it the same as you would for a can of Crisco. It is really great shortening!!!! Mine was shipped in a regular box -- with padding. Enjoy!!

in general potatoes and onions last longer indoors away from direct sunlight. with these bluapple fridge they last way longer. awesome product. keeps my spinach and mushrooms so fresh for 2 weeks. after 2 weeks only mushrooms start to get mushy n stink.

I have one of these spinners and I sell at the farmers market. I think that it is well worth the price because of the size. I have found that if I put to much lettuce in it the water does not spin out as easily. What I do is put it in a large bag with a paper towel to absorb some of the moisture and refrigerate it. It keeps for several days like this.

Storing in the freezer serves no useful purpose and would compromise the chewiness. The product will stay fresh if kept sealed, although the refrigerator might extend freshness awhile. We don't do that.

It is better to store seeds covered in the refrigerator with desiccant packets to absorb moisture. That is what I learned in master gardeners class.

There was no info on storage so I left mine tightly sealed in a cabinet. I know the ones in pre made boxes are shelved so that's what I did... I can't imagine putting it in the fridge would be a bad idea though, so whatever you are comfortable with..
