My fridges are ant proof. Cupboards aren't.

Almost everything goes in the fridge.

My wife is Thai, so you can find her surplus perfume stock and swimsuit in the fridge too. Don't ask.

Aside from Peter's post that suggests bread goes stale more quickly, why not load all food items in there if you have room? I found a great place that sells French bread in Nong Khai Muang. We go once a week.

I agree that coffee should go in the freezer, and I am neutral on the bananas in the fridge idea, actually cold bananas would be quite nice - but certainly nothing tinned.

Basically, what I said in my OP is correct and anyboy that disagrees with me is either wrong, misinformed, or a retarded chimpanzee living in Jakarta.

How about a jar/bottle of honey?
It certainly doesn't require chilling. You gonna leave it out on the counter overnight?

Unless you scrub the rim (easy on, mate) or lick it clean (where is this going?) you'll wish it was in the fridge in the morning.

My fridge is probably the most important tool in our household.

Most things go in the fridge except for fresh fruits which don't last long with all the kids I have.

Brought a large chest freezer as well which has come in very handy.

Strange to hear Marmite hardens in the fridge as Vegemite stores perfectly when stored there.

I'm with Tex and Scampy the tool on this, almost everything goes in the fridge except bread and thats kept in the Micro wave. Its too hot to store most things outside, it oxidizes quickly, so flour, sugar, pasta, breakfast cereals even jars of Pesto, sundried tomatoes (arn't I the yuppie) all kept in there.
Although my wife, bless her little cotton socks, will sometimes buy some long dead fish and leave that overnight on the bench, no problem with ants as I think it kills them.
If she had her way the fridge would only be used for milk and drinking water, according to her if food cant stand up to a few days left in the atmosphere it has no flavour.

In my fridge is beer, gin, tonic water, ginger ale, limes, ice, vodka, orange juice and tomato juice. And the freezer bit is stuffed full of Magnum bars. That's it.

The one's in the kitchen have probably got food in them though.

I'm with Gerbil on this one. He's got all he needs the fridge!!!

I can't belive no one has mentined potatoes. They start spouting in the fridge and are useless after about half centimeter. A bit like BF'S Knob!

In my fridge is some flood water, marmite, jalepinios, fox's delights, blue cheese, galub jammin and some chilli's. Help yourself's!!!

Coffee loses it's aroma if frozen so fridge.

Makeup is in the fridge.

Angora sweaters in the freezer stops them shedding hair.

I never put bread in the fridge, buy and eat same day.
