Why Food Spoils Quickly in the Refrigerator: Common Food Storage Mistakes

Many of us do not understand why even the longest-storing vegetables spoil in the refrigerator.

They lose their aroma and consistency too quickly, and also become covered in mold - after which the only thing left to do is throw them in the trash.

It is important to understand that each food product or dish has its own characteristics and storage features depend on them.

How to extend the shelf life of food in the refrigerator

Here are some common mistakes.

1. Meat or minced meat. It is better to put them in the freezer immediately, otherwise they will spoil quickly.
2. Eggs in the refrigerator door. They don't like temperature fluctuations - better put a dozen on the shelf.
3. Milk in the refrigerator door. This product also does not like temperature fluctuations.
4. Wet greens. It is better to wrap them in a paper towel.
5. Bread. Store baked goods in a special bread bin.
