15 foods you should never store in your refrigerator

3. Garlic

Garlic loses flavor when stored in the refrigerator. Store it in a cool, dry place with good ventilation to maintain its pungency. A good example is a paper bag. Even after the head is opened, the garlic will start to go bad. Use those cloves within 10 days.

4. Melon

Melons, such as cantaloupe, watermelon, and honeydew, are best stored whole at room temperature. Some studies have shown that refrigerating melon breaks down antioxidants faster, making it healthier to eat it at room temperature. Once cut, melon can be stored in the refrigerator for about 3 to 4 days.
