How to choose and store Green Onion

How to choose

Choose firm, unbruised produce with no soft spots or damage. If buying pre-cut or bagged, pick only packs kept refrigerated or on ice.

Storage

Refrigerate perishable produce at 40°F (4°C) or below, and refrigerate anything pre-cut or packaged. Wash under running water just before eating.
