Mulți cunosc pericolele păstrării conservelor deschise, cărnii crude și peștelui în frigider, însă există unele alimente neașteptate care pot cauza probleme de sănătate.
This article warns against refrigerating certain foods like garlic, onions, ginger, cucumbers, and peppers, as it can foster the growth of harmful mold due to the cold, humid environment.
The experts explain that while storing whole, unpeeled onions and garlic in a cool, dry place can extend their shelf life for months, refrigeration accelerates the process of turning their starch into sugars, making them soft and conducive to mold growth.
Specifically, black mold on onions and garlic can lead to various health complications like kidney problems, respiratory infections, fungal ear infections, and allergic reactions.
Therefore, the article recommends storing these foods at room temperature, and only refrigerating them after they've been cut or peeled and in an airtight container.
