    Just finished my cheese & pickle onion sandwich (the huge pickle jar is taking up too much room in the fridge so they have to be eaten soon!!).  I followed Becks's recipe and used grated cheese - much nicer image

    Eggs in the fridge?yes or noimage

    Pickled onions in our fridge-but I don't know whyimage

    I say "no" to eggs in fridge as I use lots of them for making cakes and they mix much better if at room temperature.  Any food in jars, once opened,keep in the fridge.

    I'm interested in who else puts eggs in fridge! I always do, but only because it says to on the carton. Does it not keep them any fresher?

    I  have read conflicting stories about this-but if you consider how they are sold unrefrigerated-putting them in the fridge doesn't make sense-but then you have those egg things in fridgesimage

    Ours do not go in the fridge -but then we know exactly how old they areimage

    And then some people keep bread in the fridgeimage

    Ooh, no! Not bread in the fridge. Big no-no in this house.image

    Take eggs out for an hour or so before going to cook. Never kept pickle onions in fridge. Keep open jars of jam in fridge and chutneys. Have a shelf full of opened jarsimage Perhaps I ought to check them.

    Never bread. Does it make it go soggy or something

    Am I the only one who like "Take me Out " on the telly? OH is still in England seeing relations, I came home for my horses as I don't know how long local farmer was willing to dole out hay. OH won't watch "Take me Out".Thinks it's silly. It makes me smile.image

    You don't need to keep pickles in the fridge, the vinegar preserves them. I don't keep home-made jam in the fridge either, the sugar preserves that. They were invented as a way to keep food before fridges were invented. My Granny had a meat-safe in the garden instead of a fridge, but I don't think I'd trust it for meat.
