Avocados can be expensive in groceries, so buying them in bulk in local markets is the way to go. If you ever encounter a good deal, don’t hesitate to buy it. Following the proper way to store avocados can keep them fresh for a long time in your fridge. No, they will not spoil. You’ll be able to enjoy this fruit for a month!

There are also some days when we only need half of an avocado for a toast. You don’t need to worry about the other half, as it can last for a week if you store it properly. Learn how to keep avocados fresh with The Cross Legacy‘s tutorial.

How to Store Cut Avocados Properly

If you cut an avocado in half and only use one half, you can keep the other one with the pit fresh by placing it in a glass container with a metal lid. A mason jar is great for storing them. Just place the other half with the pit inside a clean glass jar and close it with the lid. It will stay fresh for about a week after you cut it.

How to Store Whole Avocados

For whole avocados, store them in your crisp drawer with lemons. They will stay fresh for a month when you first buy them.
