The shelf life of cheese can be significantly extended by simply placing a piece of sugar next to it.

The video with this life hack has collected 2 million views on TikTok.

How to extend the shelf life of cheese

Remove the cheese from the package it came in and place it in a container along with a lump of sugar.

You can pre-wrap the cheese in parchment paper.

The sugar will absorb excess moisture and the cheese will not become moldy.

An important nuance: the piece of sugar should not touch the cheese.

Fresh cheeses (mozzarella, etc.) should be stored in the coldest place in the refrigerator – near the freezer.
