This Genius Container Keeps Produce Fresh for ‘Up to a Month,’ According to Shoppers

It’s oh so tempting to pick up heaps of fruits and vegetables at the grocery store, but in the long run, I end up tossing away more than we eat. Ingredients always seem to go bad faster than they can be eaten in my house. Sure you can put it in the crisper drawer, but that still doesn’t extend the shelf life of these refreshing goodies. Luckily, I found a way that keeps them fresher longer: produce savers. 

One I’ve got my eye on right now is this Produce ProKeeper that shoppers say keeps produce fresh for “twice as long.” That’s because I’ll be making seasonal recipes like roasted vegetables with the holidays coming up, so I want my produce to be as fresh as possible. Best of all? It’s just $15 at Amazon right now.

Progressive International Prepworks Produce ProKeeper

It’s all in the design that makes this produce saver by Progressive International Prepworks work. The container has vents that can be opened or closed depending on what you’re storing. It sits in a reservoir base that keeps the container lifted up while also allowing a place for water to be added to provide moisture when needed. The lid is airtight with a silicone seal to lock in the freshness, and has a helpful guide printed on the top that provides information on whether to leave the vents open and if water needs to be added for the type of produce being stored in it.

And yet another perk to this produce saver? The container also doubles as a colander, so you can rinse that produce right in it. It has a 3-quart capacity and measures 7.25 x 11 x 3.75 inches, which provides ample enough room to store crunchy carrots, celery stalks, broccoli, peppers, grapes, or other produce. It is made of BPA-free clear plastic so you can easily view what’s in the container. It’s also stackable, so if you get more than one of these clever containers, you can put it right on top of the other one, saving space in the refrigerator. This rectangular-shaped produce saver is also dishwasher-safe for quick and easy cleanup.

It has raked in over 1,300 perfect ratings from shoppers who love how it extends the shelf life of their produce, saving them time and money at the grocery store, along with how easy it is to use. “I have had celery and carrots in the refrigerator in this container for a month and they are as fresh as the day I bought them,” writes one reviewer. “I was impressed by how crisp my cucumbers and peppers were after using this [container],” says another customer. “They keep the produce fresher longer and make it really easy to wash and store — all in one container,” wrote a third shopper. “I also love how they stack neatly in the fridge so I have more space and less disorganization,” they added.

This produce saver is a great solution to prolonging the life of your fruits and vegetables. It’s already in my shopping cart. Put one in yours while it’s on sale for $15.
