6. Get long-lasting berries
Prevent berries from getting moldy and soft. Mix one part of vinegar with ten parts of water. Rinse your berries in this solution before putting in the fridge. This method will allow your berries to last at least 1 week longer.

7. Wrap lettuce with a damp paper towel
Before putting in fridge, wrap lettuce with a damp paper towel. If you see leaves wilting, try to revive it by soaking the lettuce in ice water for a few minutes.

8. Store onions in pantyhose
Onions can stay fresh for up to 6 months if properly stored in a cool, dark place. Buy some clean pantyhose, and place whole onions into the feet. Tie a knot with the pantyhose between each whole onion. Repeat until you fill the entire pantyhose. Hang up in a closet, pantry, or kitchen wall. (Yes, this can be decor!)

10. Store cucumbers in sealable container
Cut your cucumbers into about 1/4-inch slices. Stack the slices in a sealable container. Then, place a folded paper towel on top of your cucumbers and put a lid on your container. Store your cucumbers upside down (so that the paper towel is on the bottom). The towel will soak up extra moisture.

11. Keep guacamole fresh with water
Put guacamole in an airtight container and add some water at the top before sealing and leaving in fridge. This might sound strange but the water acts as a protective shield against oxygen. You can keep the guacamole in the fridge for 3 days. Once you are ready to eat it, take the guacamole out, dump out the water, and mix it up before serving.
