Mine start to wilt within three days for some reason (in the fridge). I wonder what I am doing wrong. I always see those bags of carrots in the grocery stores and never buy them because I think to myself no one eats that many carrots within such a short amount of time, except maybe if they are doing a carrot cake or smoothie or something else very carrot-centric.
Most modern fridges have a humidity control on the crisper/veggie drawer. That most likely accounts for the disparity. There also regional humidity to consider. Living in a dryer climate, your carrots may dry out faster than those in a humid climate.
I have never had that issue with my carrots and they last for months in the fridge.

Carrots? Do you just leave them open air in the middle of the fridge or something? I keep them in the bag in the veggie drawer.
I’ve actually got to make sure they don’t get mushy/moldy because all the moisture gets trapped.
That must be it. I don’t bag them.
