Foods You Should Not Put In The Fridge__Expert

1. Tomatoes
Tomatoes will lose all their flavour in the fridge. What’s a bigger crime than that? The cold air in the fridge stops the ripening process, and ripening is what gives tomatoes more flavour. 

2. Potatoes Keeping a potato in the cold temperature of your refrigerator will turn its starch into sugar more quickly, so that you’ll be left with a sweet, gritty potato. 

3. Onions  If you put onions in the fridge, the moisture will eventually turn them soft and mouldy. Keep them in a cool, dry place. 

4. GarlicEventually, garlic will start to sprout in the fridge, and it may also get rubbery and mouldy. You should instead keep garlic in a cool, dry place.

5. Bread
You refrigerator will dry out your bread quickly. Unless it’s sliced sandwich bread that you intend to use within a few days, keep bread out on the counter or in the freezer.

6. Olive Oil
You should store olive oil in a cool, dark place, but not in the fridge, where it will condense and turn to a harder, almost butter-like consistency.

7. Honey
There’s no need to store honey in the fridge — it will stay good basically forever if you simply keep it tightly sealed. Keeping honey in the refrigerator can cause it to crystallise.
