Mushrooms vs Celery: Which Lasts Longer?
Celery lasts longer in the fridge (2–4 weeks) than Mushrooms (raw) (4–7 days), according to cited USDA/FDA storage references.
Use this comparison when you are deciding what to cook, freeze, or finish first. The fridge row compares the base storage state for each food; the freezer row is shown separately because it is better for storage planning than for deciding what to use today.
For the safest call, open the full guide for each food and confirm the state matches: raw, cooked, opened, unopened, or dry. Check the spoilage notes before relying on the date alone; if odor, texture, packaging, or appearance looks off, do not stretch the timeline.
