How long do oranges last?

Oranges generally last longer than many other fruits, and how long they last depends on how they’ve been picked and stored. Oranges that are mature when picked will last longer than those that are excessively ripe. If you have fresh, unripe oranges, they can last up to a week if stored in a cool, dark place. If you store them in the fridge, they can last for up to a month or longer. It’s important to note that if you’ve peeled the orange and separated the flesh from the peel, it becomes easier for bacteria to enter, and in that case, it should be consumed within a few days or stored in the fridge. It’s also important to regularly check oranges for signs of damage or mold, and to remove damaged or moldy fruits to prevent affecting the others. However, it’s always best to check the best-before date before using the orange, and if there are any signs that they have lost their quality, such as a strong fruit smell or appearance of mold, they should not be used.
