Carrots
Carrots are similar to cucumbers in their genetic makeup and how they react to the chilling process. Just like cucumbers, the cold air of a fridge can actually speed up the rotting process due to the high water content naturally found in these vegetables. To make your carrots last longer, it’s best to store them at room temperature, where they can better retain their moisture. If you prefer to eat your carrots chilled, there’s no harm in cooling them for a few hours before serving—just don’t store them in the fridge for extended periods!

Cereal
It doesn’t matter if it’s a healthy cereal or a sugary treat for the kids – you should never store it in the fridge. Once a box is opened, simply roll the plastic bag and tie it shut to keep the air out. There’s no need to chill it. Storing cereal in the fridge can cause it to absorb moisture, which not only ruins its crunch but also lets it take on the odors of other foods in the fridge. For a cool cereal experience, just rely on the milk instead! Keep your cereal in a dry, cool place to preserve its freshness and flavor.
