Bought some delicate fruit and got a big bruise when I got home? Former supermarket clerk teaches how to use plastic bags to make "shockproof air cushions"

When shopping in the supermarket, I bought fruits that were not resistant to collision and were already damaged when I put them in the shopping bag and took them home. Toto, a food education lecturer who once worked in the agricultural products department of a supermarket, shared on his blog that at this time, you can use the plastic bags provided by the supermarket to hold fruits and vegetables. With a little effort, you can prevent the fruits from being damaged on the way home.

ぱるとよ Take peach as an example. Peach is more difficult to handle than most fruits. The flesh is soft and delicate, and it is easy to bruise or dent with just a little impact or pressure. Even if you carefully select at the supermarket, it is not uncommon to open the bag when you get home only to find that it has been crushed.

The key lies in "how to bag"

The most vulnerable time for peaches to be damaged is when bagging in the checkout area after checkout. If mixed with heavy objects such as cans and milk, the pressure in the same bag will slowly squeeze it during movement. By the time you get home, the pressed parts are often discolored or soft.

Turn plastic bags into "air shockproof pads"

At this time, the plastic bags readily available in the bagging section of the supermarket can come in handy. With just one simple step, it can be transformed into an "air cushion" that protects fruits. The method is as follows:

1. Put the peach packaging box into a clean plastic bag

2. Blow into the bag to inflate it like a balloon

3. Then tie the mouth of the bag with a knot or seal it tightly with tape to avoid air leakage

In this way, an "air layer" is formed inside the bag, which can effectively buffer collisions and vibrations, and prevent the peach from being squeezed or bruised.

Not only peaches, but also applicable to other delicate fruits

This method is not only suitable for peaches, but can also be used on fruits with soft flesh that are easy to break or crush, such as figs and muscadines.

And plastic bags can be obtained for free in major supermarkets, so there is no need to prepare any additional props. Just take a few extra seconds when bagging and you can get your fruit home safe and in perfect condition.
