Foods You Should Never Store In The Fridge

Zucchini

Zucchinis have a high-water content, which makes them prone to moisture loss when exposed to cold temperatures. This dehydration process results in a shriveled and limp texture that no one wants on their plate. Instead of refrigerating your zucchinis, it’s best to store them at room temperature or between 50-68°F (10-20°C).

Wrapping them loosely in a paper towel or storing them in a breathable bag will help maintain their freshness by preventing excess moisture loss. By keeping your zucchinis outside of the refrigerator, you’ll also preserve their flavor more effectively.
