Unripe Avocados

It is advised not to store unripe avocados in the refrigerator as they achieve their ripeness quicker when stored at room temperature. 

Potatoes

Keeping potatoes in the fridges makes them gritty and sweet. You can store them in ventilated containers or open paper bags to prevent sprouting. 

Cucumber

We all store cucumbers in the refrigerator but this leads to water-soaked spots, shrivelling and yellowing after three to four days. If you still choose to store them in the refrigerator, wrap them in plastic first. 

Bread

Bread kept in the fridge can become stale and dry, so avoid doing it. 

Honey

Storing honey in the refrigerator makes it unpalatable. Instead, one should store it in a container and place it in some dark spot.

Honey

Garlic is prone to mould growth in the fridge, due to the humid conditions. So, store it in the open.
