Most of us put things in the fridge whenever we want to keep them fresh because we think the cold will stop them from going bad. But did you know that some types of food are actually best preserved outside the fridge?
Not only that, but keeping them in the fridge can actually do more bad than good. One such example is baked goods. Storing baked goods inside the fridge will result in them going stale in just a few hours, so it’s best if to just put them in a kitchen cabinet, inside a paper bag or aluminum container.
Another type of food you shouldn’t refrigerate are tomatoes. This may come as a surprise for a lot of people, but keeping tomatoes inside the fridge will cause their texture and taste to be altered. You may even discover that your tomatoes pick on the flavor of other things inside the fridge, and no one wants to eat a tomato that taste like raw fish or sausage, right?
Another food I want to include here are potatoes. Keeping them in the fridge will not prevent potatoes from going bad. On the contrary, they will become gritty and lose their famous flavor. They are best stored in a basement or another a dark environment at about 45 to 50-degrees Fahrenheit.
