Extra helpful tips…
If you don't finish eating your salad in one sitting, to keep your salad fresh and to maximize its shelf-life, spritz your fruit salad with lemon/lime juice and refrigerate in an air-tight container.
I prefer to eat it that later that day or if not, the next day. For me, I like to eat it within a day or two. However, with the lemon spritz, this does help to maintain its freshness and quality.
