"rot" for example: Vegetables easily rot
i said what what in the but
A ripe pear could take as little as 3-5 days to decompose. A pear that is not fully ripe may take more then a week to rot.
It's to keep the fruits/vegetables fresh so they don't decompose as fast. No one wants dry vegetables that have been sitting in the supermarket all day. Gross!
Fresh fruits and vegetables decompose at a rate comparable to a gas they emit. The more of it there is, the faster they decompose. The reason fruits last longer is that the more natural sugars in it, the less of the gas they emit. Hence, tomatoes and carrots decompose slower than celery and asparagus. Ventalating them has it's pro's and cons. Tied in a bag, the gas concentrates, but open in the drawer, nearby veggies that would last longer are effected. Lastly, ripening is the exact same process as decomposing, so if you ever need something to ripen faster, place it in close proximity to the least sweet produce that you have. Everything ripens faster on the counter due to warmth.
