I know I've kept apples at room temp. for longer than that. Not a lot longer though. They seem to spoil fairly quickly if not refrigerated. Tomatoes don't seem to last very long. I've also read not to refrigerate them unless they've been cut into. The cold reduces the sweetness or something. I always kept tomatoes at room temp. when I lived in CA. Had no problems with them. But here, they seem to spoil in a day or two so I have to refrigerate them. |

Not a lot > longer though. They seem to spoil fairly quickly if not refrigerated. They don't need to be refrigerated but they shouldn't be kept at room temp either. A cold cellar is perfect. However, different varieties of apples keep different lengths. Ted |
