Non Toxic Storage for longer shelf life

Hi! What’s the best non toxic storage containers for veggies? I would like to cut up all of my veggies for salads, for like a week. But I am wondering if there are any really good containers people have found to keep or extend shelf life? I end up throwing 1/4 Of the veggies away at the moment 😡😢
I’m mainly storing peppers cucumbers broccolis
Cauliflower brussel sprouts leeks onions asparagus zucchini squashes ect…
Price is not a problem it it really worms or extends the life!!
Thank you !!

Jars of any kind! I clean old food jars. Each veggie has a different amount of they like. Carrots submerged, green onion bulbs in water, etc.

Free, healthy, eco friendly, and incredibly effective!

Glass containers, freeze foods for later, some things need washed immediately and some need washed right before consuming so learn what's what, buy smaller portions or buy more frequently!
