-338- Refrigeration


Getting back to work today was hard when I know that my dad is still recovering halfway across the country. However, I was quickly reminded that I am very thankful for my work and the people I work with. That made it a little easier.

I stopped by the grocery store after work today. Among many other things, I picked up two different kinds of tomatoes. I learned just last week that Justin especially likes grape tomatoes in his salads, so I bought those as well as a few regular ones. I was surprised to see "DO NOT REFRIGERATE" on the carton and mentioned it to Justin. Based on his experience working in produce, he said that tomatoes aren't supposed to be stored in the fridge. I grew up with them in the fridge, and just thinking about eating one warm makes my mouth pucker. However, I found a nook on the counter and set them there. We'll see how this goes.

  1. I always wondered why they weren't supposed to go in the fridge, so I looked it up once. Supposedly the cold temperatures change the flavour and texture of the tomato.
