My Mom Used These 10 Fridge Tricks to Make Food Last 5x Longer

The average family of four throws away almost $3,000 of food every year. My mom raised four kids on one paycheck, and she almost never threw food away. In this video I'm sharing the 10 simple fridge habits she taught me. Most of them are free and take less than a minute. Some keep food fresh a few extra days, and a few make it last up to five times longer: herbs that stay green for two weeks, celery that stays crisp for a month, lettuce that lasts ten days instead of four.
