Storing a sliced Cantaloupe?

Question

I am storing a sliced cantaloupe inside my refridgerator. I have sliced a piece (1/8 of the hull, inward) and stored the remaining 7/8 inside a zip-loc bag to prevent it from spoiling.

I am able to SEAL this remaining fruit by using simple plastic-seal or a zip-loc bag.

Is this (plastic seal) BETTER to seal this fruit-meat inside my refrigerator or can I store this cantelope longer simply inside the large zip loc bag?

Thanks as I try to continually cut more wedges out of the meat to eat in this bloody heat.

Answer 1

I like to store it in a large plastic bowl with a tight fitting lid so it won't smell up the whole fridge but as long as it covered it will be all right.   Enjoy, it's hot outside!

Answer 2

Just so long the cut cantaloupe is covered with something or in something it will keep in your fridge for a few days...but you'll probably consume it faster than that.
