- Sriracha hot chilli sauce.
- Spring onions - never really thought about them before but they're a revelation in sandwiches.
- Loo rolls don't stay in the packet, they have a small wicker basket that they live in.
- Neither bread nor ketchup should go in the fridge, ever.
- You can never have too many scatter cushions.
EDIT: Forgot fabric softener. Dunno about the softness but my clothes have never smelled so good! [Post edited 1 May 2020 18:44]

Do you think I'm so dumb that I can't tell the difference between a week and 3 weeks?
Problem with some of you on here is you have this received wisdom, probably from your parents or something you read on the internet.
However, I'm out here on the front line, living this. I've been there and seen fridge based bread vs non fridge based bread. And I can tell you the evidence is the bread in my old house lasted way longer... in the fridge.
Instead of going with what you think you know, open your minds, experiment, don't believe everything you're told. Because everything you've been told is wrong. I've seen it. Come join me. Come. |
That was the house not the fridge.....scientific fact! |  |

Putting bread in the fridge will indeed preserve it longer and it won’t go so mouldy as quickly. However, putting it in the fridge sucks the texture, flavour and freshness out of it. [Post edited 2 May 2020 10:54]

I don't like the smell in the bottle, but my clothes smell like a fresh summer's day. Tell her that. And tell her to stop making dozy bint comments, put her knickers on, and get back in the kitchen.

Your girlfriend wears knickers in the kitchen.....it's over mate! | |

I used to keep my bread in the fridge at uni when I was young and clueless. It always seemed to go stale within about 3 days and was horrid to eat. Someone pointed out the error of my ways and now I can say if I keep bread at room temperature, out of direct sunlight and air tight it will stay fresh for anywhere between 4-7 days depending on whether shop bought or from a bakery.
If your evidence is really better than those of scientists and those who would have done multiple tests in such conditions or the majority of those who have experience this for themselves why don’t you write a paper on it or become a food technologist |  |

Sigh. Dunno what I'm doing teaching life basics on here this morning, but...
No proper loaf lasts more than three days. Bread does not belong in a fridge, and certainly not in a freezer.
It is unacceptable to buy pre-cut bread or to use margarine.
Now, please listen and learn before I have to start giving lessons on shoelaces. |  |

Have you got a link to these scientists or was it just a uni flatmate who thought he was clever?
If your bread was going stale in 3 days in the fridge then your fridge was sh!t mate, that was the problem. | |

Bread goes stale quicker in the fridge, it’s a scientific fact. Mouldiness however as you report is a different matter and a fridge will likely slow that down. Not that I’ve ever put bread in a fridge. |  | | |

But it’s no good telling Dolly! His personal experience trumps proven scientific fact apparently | |

Doesn’t matter whether good quality or bad quality bread, the fridge will make it go staler quicker than if it was left outside the fridge. But apparently you know better than science. | |

Take your head out of the sand and look it up yourself. I was trying to defend you because you’re right about mould but wrong about what stale bread is. | | | |

You and N2 are wrong I'm afraid. You THOUGHT it was going stale, but you were mistaken.

"Bread left in the fridge might appear stale. But, explains Myhrvold, that’s not due to a lack of moisture – refrigerated bread seems hard because of starch retrogradation, or the re-crystallization of the starch in the bread. “It [the bread] will seem stiffer and we associate stiffness, or lack of softness, with staleness,” says Myhrvold. But, the bread is less likely to actually go stale in the fridge."
These people conducted more than 1,600 experiments as detailed in a 2,500 page document.
I await the science both of you have... | |

“The most important event in the process of staling is when starch molecules crystallize”
From your link: “refrigerated bread seems hard because of starch retrogradation, or the re-crystallization of the starch in the bread”
I didn’t think it was going stale because as I said, I’ve never put bread in the fridge and would never consider such sacrilege. Fridge is for beer. | | | |

I'm no scientician so I will hold my hands up here, but it still remains that keeping bread in a fridge is wrong. The whole staleness debate is irrelevant. No one wants to eat cold sandwiches. That's what meal deals are for. | |

You said "Bread goes stale quicker in the fridge, it’s a scientific fact." I've just proved it isn't with a 1,600 experiment study. | |

As you say, all sandwiches in shops are chilled. In Britain, the sandwich industry is worth £5.6bn a year, according to Kantar Worldpanel data So your assertion that, "No one wants to eat cold sandwiches" is wrong.
