Can this be used on the counter for produce that you don't refrigerate?

I use it both inside and outside the fridge. It seems to help make the counter fruit (like bananas) and veggies (like tomatoes) last longer. The green bags help too, but you have to make sure the bags are open or moisture builds up inside and creates mold. This is not a problem with the bluapple product, which I've come to like better than the bags.

I put one in my fruit bowl and keep covered with a towel. It works that way.

I wouldn't think they would be so effective because they would be working against all the air in the house, not just what's in the fridge. If you're going to go that route, you'd probably have to put the produce in a sealed bag or container to get them to work right.

Yes. I have one in my fruit bowl and one in the fridge drawer. It does work fine in the fruit bowl - my bananas last longer as do my peaches.

I put one in my fruit basket on the counter. I think that it helps, but maybe not as dramatically as in a closed area like a crisper drawer.

I've read that they can. I put one next to my bananas. It may have helped them from turning brown by an extra day or two.

I think it requires a more enclosed space than a counter. You have nothing to lose if you experiment.

I'm not really sure as I keep mine in the cupboard. I would guess that it would be ok since it is airtight, but the only way to know for sure would be to try it. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I can leave mine out on my countertop for as long as a week, have gone 10 days. I do recommend refrigerating them for extended use!

I never refrigerate potatoes. The green bags are great for bananas on the counter. I suppose they would work as well for potatoes unrefrigerated.

I don't think it would hurt to refrigerate it as long as the seal it tight. I just keep ours in a drawer in the dark but now that you mention it, refrigeration may be best. I make powder packets for all of us ahead of time and put in snack bags in the refrigerator because of the ground flax in them.

I don't use it for fresh food but I can't see any reason why it wouldn't suit your needs.

The manufacturers don't mention the need for refrigeration, so they should be OK. I do store mine in a fridge because that's what I've always done.

Yes, it doesn't require refrigeration, but if you wear your pants snug, it might be a problem since the lid just snaps on.

Yes, you can absolutely use it for deep frying, as long as you're frying at no more than 450F. It doesn't need to be refrigerated.

No, it does not need to be refrigerated. can also be used in a smoothie, or as a meal replacement drink go to www.enerfood.com for more info.

No, does not need to be refrigerated. Bottle says to "keep it in a cool, dry place"

No, you don't necessarily need to refrigerate it. I keep it on my countertop and it has not lost its scent or taste.

Hello JeanneB, I have not tried what you are asking about, but from what I have read so far, as long as the food in the container does not thaw when you remove it from the Freezer, it should be OK to re-seal and re-freeze for later use. I believe that since you have opened the food to new air and contaminates, the shelf life will have been compromised, but if you use the food up within a reasonably short amount of time, you should be fine. The FoodSaver sealer is very handy for re-sealing those foods that you didn't use all of.

yes, just pop the entire mat into the fridge. The unique mat even stays cool when it's not refrigerated due to its innate cooling properties

Yes, definitely. I have made soy yogurt in one. Just put the container in without the shelves and set temperature to 105-110 degrees.

It is shelf stable so you don't need to. Wouldn't hurt to put it in the fridge.

I'm guessing no, because I was told not to refrigerate it. Sounds like room temperature is the best.
