Jam: Don’t we all just love some nice strawberry jam spread with butter on our toast in the mornings? Well, we often make the mistake of refrigerating any kind of jam.
There are some types of preservatives in jam and jellies that turn into their crystal forms. To keep this from happening, it’s best if you would store them on a shelf.
Pickles: They don’t need to be refrigerated because they contain a lot of sodium and brine. They’ve already been preserved, so you can go ahead and keep this item in the pantry to free up some valuable refrigerator space.

The problem is that some stores refrigerate everything to preserve them before putting them out including bread
Thank you for this article.
The Electoral College got us Donald Trump, and look what a disaster that has been! He never would have been elected by popular vote. He is a lying, narcissistic, sexual-predator and insurrectionist who is now a convicted felon and should be in jail. Please, one citizen, one vote. It is no longer the 1800s.
Then why does it say on the labels on a lot of products to refrigerate after opening? I don’t have enough counter space to leave food out, so, it goes into the fridge.
I keep my pickles in the refrigerator because they taste better chilled. Tomatoes go in when they start getting soft before they have a chance to spoil
Give a numbered list at the end of your article!
If eggs are farm fresh and straight from the chicken, they can be kept on the counter.
Stop peppering the article with ad’s that not only confuse the reader to continue reading the article instead of being led into a useless ad. If your content is as dependent then it not only removes the reading and information pleasure but leads to doubt as to the validity of the content of the article
Ok…instead of the wordiness and incessant BS ads. How about just making a list of items. Then you can follow up with item by item as to why
Get to the point and you can get to the incidental contest specific to each stated item later on.
A good writer will get to the point quick then support the specific case by case specifics later. The writer does not know how to keep readers interested..he/she must work for the ad companies.
Honey does not need refrigeration.
For jams and jelly, it reads to refrigerate after opening. Now I’m reading mixed instructions.
do you mean AFTER they are opened too? or just unopened?
Some of the things I always knew but overall this was a very good article.
I was on an Israeli kibbutz for 3 months, where eggs were not refrigerated. Perfectly fine. But as said, once refrigerated, like here in the States, always refrigerated.
Okay thanks
Okay tell me more
Quit asking for comments
Stop asking show me the food 7
Where the fuck is the list!!
Very interesting, did not know some of these things about some of the items, Thanks.
Just post the list. The items are not coming up when clicking on the number.
Right – stop refrigerating these things and let them get rotten! I refrigerate all of them because some years ago I read and article like this so I followed instructions – and threw away more than half because they got spoiled out of the fridge.
I have found that not refrigrating jam hastens mold growth. It’s not a good idea to put it on the pantry shelf after opening.
I say Trump
Terrific news about stuff to not keep in fridge! Good information. Thanks!
I have stopped viewing these infomercials since it takes too long to wait for the info while give a sales pitch. While I would like the info it takes too long to get to the bottome line – COST!!!!!!
Click bait
Thank You…Great Info!
So what are the 10 things that we don’t need to refrigerate? Your articles only half finished. I find this clickbait crap very irritating.
You’re right! I keep a lot of this in my fridge! I saw my mother do it so I always have but at age 77 I will be making some changes! Never too late to learn. Thank you!
