What can we find inside your refrigerator now? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people11 months ago

I have visited a friend who has lots of stuff inside their refrigerator, even the things that need not to be in there, they still put it squeezing the space. happyhappy sometimes I do that too? like a bag of flour that is already opened, bread crumbs, pan cake flour.. I am just wondering, do we need to put these things in the refrigerator when it's already open? can we not put it in the pantry or counter? Just curious of what did you do with it and why?

The only 'odd thing that I keep in the freezer is my bags of potato chips, corn chips, etc. They will keep FRESH up to a year in your freezer!!Trust me this really works!! My flour,etc I keep in container's so the 'bugs' do not get into them. Msybe that's why they keep it in the frig...Lori


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

Oh really? you put your chips inside the fridge? and it keeps fresh? OH wow!! I did not know that. I put mine in a container and sealed it properly to maintain its freshness. happy


myLot reputation of 91/100. dumblnddzzy (10290)   ranked 236 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

YES Bebs keep them in the FREEZER & they will stay fresh for up to a year!!! I've been doing this for years, since I don't eat alot of potato chips at one sitting, & they are as fresh as the day I bought them.....Lori

well, now i have just some of what i`m adding there. Now i`m having just some egs, chickens(not alive)rasp and some tomato sauce, made by my mom. I`m a college guy, and my mom is sending me some stuff to cook, but i don`t have time each day. But tomorrow i`ll make a chicken broth. One of the chickens is already out, to warm out a little, because she`s frozen. I don`t fill put my fridge, maybe just with fruits, soups, yogurts, chops and i think that`s all. Sometimes i eat some butter, and that it`s in my fridge too, but not every day.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

wow!! you have a lot on your fridge now.. you can not consume that all because you are alone and you have no time to cook. No vegetables? Lol

Stuff like flour, I put in a container, and keep it on the counter, especially if I've opened it, it helps to keep the bugs out of it, I've never put it in my fridge if its been opened, bread crumbs I keep it in the cabinet, pan cake flour, I try to keep it in some kind of container, anything like that, you need to keep it in a container or it will get bugs. Other things like cornmeal, you can keep it in the freezer, it keeps the bugs out too.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

Oh really? I did not know that it is good to put the flour in container than putting it in the fridge with its bag. Lol.. I will try to do that.. thanks.


myLot reputation of 99/100. walijo2008 (3730)   ranked 1,206 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

Haha...no you misunderstood me, I keep my flour in a container sitting on my counter, I don't put it in the fridge, if you keep it in an airtight container the bugs won't get in it... wink

I keep my flour and stuff like that in containers in the cupboard. My bread is on the counter. If I have more than one loaf, I put one in the refrigerator so it doesn't get bad. Other than that, I have the usual things in my fridge. Leftovers, eggs, milk, butter etc.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

Oh!! thanks for your idea.. Well, I have to put my flour also in a container and put it in the pantry instead of in the fridge. It is space occupying and and not necessary to be there.

I put so much in the fridge - all the things that you mnetioned and then some. The reason for this is that I live in the tropics and I do not want to encourage ants in my house. so to keep my home ant free almost everything that is not in a sealed container goes into the fridge. I just hate ants. The only things in my cupboards are opened packets etc and tinned food.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

yes, i understand that also. Having ants all around is also my problem when I was in my country. They just love to be around stuff that are open. I agree that can goods are safe in the pantry than other things, that are aleady opened. happy

Hi Bebs,

We don't put that in our ref...Flour, pan cake flour and bread crumbs are placed in our rack.
We have only vegetables inside, fruits, milk, different sauces, meat, chicken and shrimp....
Right now, I have also my " shrimp paste" wrap like a mummy! hehehhe...to avoid the smell! LOL!


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

The standard items that need to be there. I don't put things in the fridge that don't need to be there, I just toss them, its not worth cleaning it out everytime.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

That's what I think too. Maybe the stuff that needs to be preserved will be the one in there not the flour and etc.. LOL.

Well honestly by this time am not aware what's inside in our fridge by now because am working away from home and I don't know what my husband is pitting in this time. But I have a sure guess of chocolates and other sweets there; as he can't exist w/o them.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

wow!! chocolates??? I can't stand with that stuff!! I am not a fan of chocolate.. My hubby likes to eat chocolate cake but not the real chocolate.. we don't have that in our fridge.. vegetables and fruits we do but sweets like choco and candy? Nope!!happy

Hi Bebs! Some of the things that you mentioned don't need to be put
in the refrigerator, at least I don't put them in. I don't put open
flour or bread crumbs in the refrigerator. I put open flour in a
container that I seal and bread crumbs I leave in the container that
it comes in. There is no need to refrigerate them. They are fine
left out as long as they are in a decent container that is sealed
and closed tight.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

Oh really? So, I can unload my fridge now and put some items in the pantry.. am sure it will not be ruined there? thanks for the idea.

if the package says refrigerate after opening then you should refrigerate the product. As for me i do this too. I have open drinks, flour, and even candy in there. i need to clean it out also


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2527)   ranked 36 out of 35,417 in people  11 months ago

That's a good idea too.. reading the instruction of the stuff would help us to decide what is the best thing to do after opening them. Good idea.
