Foods You Should Never Store In The Fridge

Olives

Refrigeration alters the natural flavors of olives. These delectable fruits contain a plethora of aromatic compounds that contribute to their distinct taste profiles. Unfortunately, exposure to cold temperatures tends to suppress these delicate flavors, rendering them dull and lackluster upon consumption. By storing your olives at room temperature instead of in the fridge, you allow their complex flavors to fully develop and flourish.

On top of that, refrigerating olives can lead to undesirable changes in consistency. The cool temperatures cause condensation inside the container or packaging holding the olives.
