You can dampen the cloth bag to help keep produce crisp. o Room temperature: Tomatoes, pineapples, melons, mangoes, firm avocados, and firm stone fruit and kiwi fruit can be stored at room temperature. o Cool, dark cupboard: Onions, garlic, pumpkin, sweet potato, and potatoes can be kept in a cool, dark cupboard.
