Experienced housewives have many life hacks that they successfully use to keep food fresh for as long as possible.

However, to keep dairy products fresh you don’t need any secret tricks – you just need to have the necessary skills about the temperature regime in the refrigerator.

It turns out that the temperature in the refrigerator differs not only depending on which shelf – top or bottom – you choose.

Degrees vary even within the same shelf.

If you place any dairy product – no matter if it’s sour cream, kefir or cheese – on the edge of the shelf, it will most likely “die” prematurely.

This is due to the fact that this is the zone of maximum temperature instability.

This rule is especially relevant for those who like to open the refrigerator door and think for about 5 minutes about what they need to take from there.

Instead, try to free up some space for the dairy products in the back of the shelf – as close to the back wall as possible.
