Foods That Should Never Touch Your Fridge (And Why)
Cheese
Like other dairy items on this list, cheese is best kept at room temperature rather than in the fridge. This applies specifically to good quality cheese, not the processed varieties like the rubbery cheese sticks often favored by kids!
Cheese needs to be kept dry to maintain its texture and flavor, and the cold, moist environment of a fridge can accelerate the rotting process. To keep your cheese at its best, store it in a dry, room temperature environment, away from moisture. Keeping it warm and comfortable will help preserve its taste and prevent it from spoiling too quickly.
