My fridge trick for keeping lettuce crisp actually worked | Daily Life Grumbles

I was sick of my romaine going limp in 2 days, so I tried wrapping the whole head in a damp paper towel and putting it in a plastic bag. It stayed crunchy for a full week. Is it worth the extra step, or is it just easier to buy the pre-washed bags?

Totally worth it, lol. The pre-washed stuff still goes bad fast.

That damp paper towel trick is a total game changer for soggy lettuce.
