Citrus should be stored in the fridge.

Well away you go!

Not stainless per se, but chrome - which functionally should be the same:

Depends on how fast it's to be consumed.

After all, the stupidmarket doesn't sell them in refrigerated cases.

I've had varying results with citrus. Generally good for a week or more
on the counter, four or more in the fridge. I've had a couple of pieces
go bad only a few days from picking and shipped to me from Florida. I
kave no idea how old the typical market stuff is but fresh is better. .

An ordinary plastic mesh bag would work just fine... the mesh bag the
oranges were sold in would work better than anything else. But
whenever I buy citrus I wash them well and store them in my fridge...
Vitamin C dissipates rapidly at room temperature... hanging citrus up
high by ones ceiling where it's warmest is the worst of all possible
choices.

LOL Watch out! Your Vitamin C is escaping!

How does Sheldon know where the warmest point in notbob's kitchen is?

I do have to wonder, though, why nb wants a hanging basket (regardless
of metal) for hanging oranges. Something asthetic?

He can't know the exact warmest point, but since hot air rises, the
ceiling is generally warmer than the floor. Or the countertop.

Is the fridge the warmest place in an Eskimo's kitchen?

'Zactly... even a cat knows warm air rises.

Wash citrus in plain water and dry throughly with a clean towel as
soon as it's brought home, and then store in fridge one layer deep so
they are not touching, do not stack or the pressure will trigger
molding to begin at the point of contact... do not store in plastic
bags! Even cut citrus, such as lemons/limes should not be stored in
plastic bags in the fridge, the cut surface will dry and seal itself.
It's best to buy no more citrus than one can consume within a week...
those bulk bags on sale are no bargain if some need to be thrown away.
