How to keep the rest
To keep the remaining grapes fresh, store them unwashed in their original packaging or a breathable bag in the refrigerator. Avoid washing until just before you plan to eat them, as excess moisture can encourage spoilage. They are best consumed within a week or two of purchase for optimal flavor and texture.
