Be Careful! Avoid Keeping These 5 Types Of Food In Your Refrigerator

Usually, we store leftover food or cooking ingredients in the refrigerator to avoid wasting or ensure that the food can last for a long time. However, did you know that not all foods can be stored in the refrigerator, especially for long periods of time?

This is because it can be harmful to health or remove the nutrients found in the food. Not just that, it can even damage the food. Almost all of us will store all kinds of food in the fridge, right? To avoid that, here are five types of food that should not be stored in the refrigerator and below is the list.

1. Bread

Many people love to keep bread in the refrigerator to make it last longer. Despite that truth, the texture of the bread will turn hard and tasteless when eaten. In fact, the bread will mix and absorb the smell of other foods that will definitely make you dizzy.

2. Honey

Unlike bread, honey does not have an expired date so it does not need to be stored in the refrigerator for longevity. Although it is good to place at room temperature, please make sure it is not stored in a place exposed to heat to maintain its taste and quality. Other than that, keeping honey in the refrigerator can cause it to crystallize.

3. Spices

According to New Australia, avoid storing spices such as coriander, cumin, black pepper, and others in the fridge. Not only will the texture change, but it will also make your refrigerator smell of herbs. Instead, it is sufficient to be placed at room temperature only.

4. Butter

When stored in the refrigerator, the texture of the butter will harden. This condition is definitely difficult when you want to use butter. Therefore, it should be stored in a closed container at room temperature.

5. Hot Food

Hot food is not good to keep in the fridge. This is because it prevents the accumulation of moisture as well as maintaining the temperature of the refrigerator. For the record, temperature changes in your refrigerator can affect the quality and freshness of other foods.

So, it is best to avoid storing the above foods in the refrigerator to avoid the freshness and quality of your food are not affected.
