Tomatoes
Refrigerating tomatoes can ruin their flavor and texture. According to a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, cooling tomatoes below 54 degrees stops them from producing some of the substances that contribute to their taste. Additionally, refrigeration can cause chilling injury, which harms a tomato’s natural ripening and development process. Therefore, it is recommended to keep unripe tomatoes out of the fridge and store ripe ones on the counter, uncovered, if they are to be consumed in the next day or two. Tomatoes should only be refrigerated if they are already cut or if their shelf life needs to be extended.
