Most do this wrong. 10 foods you’re storing in the wrong container

Refrigerating honey can cause it to crystallize and become difficult to use. Honey is best stored at room temperature in a tightly sealed container. This prevents moisture from entering and keeps the honey smooth and easy to pour.

Avocados need to ripen at room temperature. Storing them in the fridge before they are ripe can halt the ripening process and lead to a hard, flavorless fruit. Once ripe, avocados can be stored in the fridge to extend their shelf life for a few more days.

Onions stored in the fridge can absorb moisture and become soft and moldy. Instead, store onions in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, like a pantry or a cellar. Keep them in a mesh bag or a basket to allow air circulation.

Storing potatoes in the fridge can cause their starches to convert to sugar, resulting in an overly sweet taste. Instead, store potatoes in a cool, dark place, like a pantry or a cellar, in a paper bag or a cardboard box. This will help maintain their texture and flavor.
