However, an expert has shared an interesting hack that can keep them fresh for months, and it will surprise you. Scott Evans, from the self-storage company , shared that a clever hack can make all the difference when it comes to onions, reports . The storage expert stated that storing onions in clean, sheer tights can keep them fresh for months.

He said: "It might sound strange, but old-school tricks are often the most effective.

"Storing onions in clean sheer tights is a brilliant way to keep them fresh for months.

"Place an onion in the leg of the tights, tie a knot, add another onion, and repeat. Hang them in a cool, dry place.

"The knots create separation, preventing moisture and rot from spreading."

The food expert insisted on food waste management and said that it is advisable to keep rotating food in your fridge.

He said: "While you can manually rotate items in your fridge, it's easy to forget.

"Instead, try using a spinning kitchen gadget, like a rotating fridge organiser, to keep everything visible and within reach.

"If you can see it, you're far more likely to use it before it spoils."
