4 Ways to Stop Condensation in Your Cooler

Dry produce before storing Even a little dampness on fruits and vegetables will cause fogging when warm, humid air hits the cold cooler walls.

Leave the cooler ventilated Keep the lid cracked or use a cooler with a built-in vent. If that is not possible, line the bottom with paper towels or a clean cloth to soak up drips and buffer humidity. Change them every day or two.

Avoid overpacking Air needs room to circulate. Cramming everything in traps moisture with nowhere to go.

Wrap ice packs in cloth Direct contact between cold ice packs and produce creates condensation. A cloth barrier prevents this.
