Question:

can I keep my black eyed peas in the can they came in refridgerated once opened?

I get these low sodium black eyed peas organic I believe (have a little bit of seaweed in them) well earlier I opened the can, scooped out a bit for a salad, and then put the can in the refrigerator without a lid or anythingwhat will happen from doing this? If I was to cover it with paper towel would I be okaY? Do they need to be in another container? I have no aluminum foil or money for that I'm just wonderingand if they need another container could I just use a glass bowl and cover them with paper towel? and if so how tightly sealed does the paper towel need to be? could I drape it over or do I need a rubber bandplease help me ive been drunk for many years now im sober and dont know how to livethankyou

Answer:

You should never store an open can in the fridgeThis allows bacteria to get inside the foodAlso if it isn't covered your food can pick up odors from the fridge and then they will start to taste badTransfer your peas to a plastic container with a lid or just a bowl with plastic wrapIf you don't have plastic wrap you can use the paper towel but you should use two and secure it with a rubber bandI hope this helps.
