The refrigerator

[Pommer]

There are food items that I do not keep in the refrigerator:
Here’s a partial list:

1. Vinegar
2. Mustard (prepared: yellow, brown, and powdered)
3. Dried spices
4. Ketchup
5. Soy sauce (all varieties)
6. Bullion paste
7. Breads

I'm the same as you, except for #2. I refrigerate frigerate yellow mustard.

Eggs, don't know why though, in the store they are kept at rooms temp.

I frigerate eggs also. In stores here they are kept frigerated. I've read that Americans need to frigerate eggs but most of the rest of the world doesn't. Why eggs have to be refrigerated in the US but not Europe and the best places to store them

When I am in Belize, we often do not refrigerate the eggs, though once you do, you have to leave them in the fridge. But we get the eggs from the place the farmers deliver to.
We have to refrigerate some dried spices, and breads so they do not get moldy.

In the door of my fridge there is a shelf formed to store eggs,

So I put them there.

It was easier before when egg was egg,
today you are confronted
with a wide choice, free running hens, eco eggs, cannot think just now of all the variety

Yes, I'm old enough to remember when eggs was eggs.

Could not catch what they were singing, but the title looked good.

Earlier this year we had a minor salmenella scare,

eggs were removed from shelfs, but not all eggs.

Was thinking more of,

Barefoot days down by the shady nook with a bent pin for a hook.........(sudden flashback)

A time when we kept chickens.

Si.
Food is bought fringed from the market, when brought home it needs re-frigerated, that’s why we call it thus. You’re (of course) free to use any nomenclature you desire.

This is exactly why we “soften” these up for you by boiling it for a while with vegetables and stock…happy gnawing!

That's because you live in Europe.

Why most of the world doesn't refrigerate eggs.

This year I have bought eggs about three times each in a carton of six.
Not so much for a few years before that,
I do not think it would be so easy to sell unwashed eggs,


they would have the health dept onto them.

Though I wash lettuce, tomatos in case of bugs.

When I got married she put eggs in the fridge,

and when you are married you do what you are told.


Unless she is not looking.

I used to buy cartons of six, but my store only sells cartons of dozens now. The etymology of "dozen" is probably suitable for a thread of its own.

I once cracked open a bunch of celery and found a fairly large dead black spider in it. Yes, you should wash things.

and when you are married you do what you are told.

Why I'm not married. This comment is also suitable for a thread of its own.
