How to store cherry tomatoes
If you ask to a popular tomato expert, he will say to keep cherry tomatoes (and other smaller tomatoes) in the container they came in and store them on a countertop — they should not be refrigerated. But since cherry tomatoes tend to over-ripen and crack faster than larger varieties, it’s better to keep a close eye on them to avoid waste.
