Storage Tips:
Susceptible to wilting if exposed to high temperatures and low humidity; ethylene gas will produce yellowing.
Handling Tips:
If discolored or damaged ribs must be removed from the stalk, do not pull rib out of bunch. Trace damaged rib down to the butt end and trim out with the point of a knife. Rinse whole fruits and vegetables in clean running water prior to using.
