[OT] fridge life of cooked mushrooms?

I buy the prepared salads that come in bags. If I seal the bag, it gets slimy in two or three days. If I leave the bag open, it will keep for as much as a week. Those bagged salads seem to last forever -- like multiple weeks -- for me. Maybe the arid climate? As long as you try to buy them with a long "sell by" date and as long as you don't open the bag they keep pretty well. Isn't there some sort of gas in the bags that works as a preservative? Like what they have in cold storage warehouses? Probably! They may say "organic" (the latest buzz-word to justify "premium" prices), but I don't think any of them say "preservative free". (Probably because it wouldn't occur to most of us to read the label for such a statement on fresh produce.) |
