Do You Keep Your Bread On a Shelf or in the Refrigerator?

I keep mine in a bread box. What do you do if you want a sandwich?

We keep bread in a bread box on the kitchen counter.

I don’t buy bread, but as a kid we didn’t put it in the refrigerator.

I keep the bread in a bread box. In summer I sometimes keep it in the fridge so that it lasts longer.

My bread does not go bad quicker, it lasts longer in the fridge here. If I leave it out, it gets moldy. And it does not feel cold out of the fridge to us.

We keep bread in the fridge... It keeps it from going moldy as fast as keeping it outside the fridge. I like potato bread and it's always soft and delicious.

As someone who has lived in many different areas from poor to middle class, i know my family used to try and store anything that could be gotten by like mice in cupbords in the fridge. That is while living in poor areas where if your neighbor had anything by default your rowhome will also suffer. Thats the only reason I can think of, but I now keep it in a bread container out of the fridge if not just on top of the fridge.

@looeyville We use a bread bin. Putting it in the refrigerator makes it go soggy. We keep a loaf in the freezer from which we extract the number of slices we wish to toast.

We keep ours in the fridge but wrapped. It doesn't really taste cold to us. Maybe we don't need to but we don't have a 'bread box' any more.
