Containers for fruit/veg etc

Hey ho, folks!

Merry Christmas!

I have been making lidded pots for garlic and onion for a while now. I put
holes top and bottom and shape them like garlic or onion. Silly, but fun.

What I am wondering is what other kinds of fruit/veg can keep better in
lidded pots.

Glad for any input, and especially photos or videos of what you are
suggesting.

How about ginger root, mushrooms, and potatoes?

Also smaller fruit - tangerines, lychees, nuts etc, could look good in a
purpose designed container without the lid? Not sure about the keeping
properties though.

well i guess most all fruits & veggies? imagine a BIG bowl & BIG lid
with holes like a colandar? the concept i think is to let air flow
thru & not trap moisture.

~ some products just need a sales pitch to sell so make what looks like
fun & make up a story to go with it.

see ya

Another possibility is onions. I used to have a wire basket hanging
from a beam in my kitchen and it's purpose was for storing onions.
Problem is that when one of my 6 footer family member hit it, I'd have
little pieces of onion skin falling on the floor. But you could make it
like a medium sized, open bowl (kind of like a colander but deeper and
not as wide). It would probably also work as a fruit bowl, with or
without a pedestal.

We keep Potatoes in a old Bread Crock I made a few years back, we also keep
some root vegetables in the same pot including Onions, but they don't stay
there for long 'cos we eat 'em!
