Seriously, Stop Refrigerating These Foods

Just stop it.

If you’re like a lot of people on the internet, you’re probably tired of people, governments, and disembodied voices telling you what to do. And to be fair, a lot of the things you shouldn’t put in your icebox are pretty self-evident.

You shouldn’t refrigerate pants (but should freeze them). You shouldn’t refrigerate a live mongoose. You probably shouldn’t refrigerate other refrigerators, because that’s wasteful.

But you know what? Since this list is potentially infinite, I guess we’ll save time and restrict ourselves to the foods many people think they should be refrigerating, but really don’t need to. Yes, that will be better.

The Definitely Don’t Refrigerate list:

Avocado
Bananas
Bread
Cannolis
Garlic
Honey
Hot Sauce
Melon
Oils
Onions
Pastries
Peanut Butter
Potatoes
Spices
Stone Fruits
Tomatoes
