André Toulon Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I guess specifically I'm talking about ketchup, but people here keep mustard and syrup out as well......I get looked at funny when I take shit off the counter and put it in the fridge. And it's at home too.......My girl asked me a few times why do I put ketchup in the fridge......She says she doesn't want cold ketchup.....I'm like well do you want it spoiled. I've had spoiled ketchup before.....It kinda burns and tastes like what it is.....Rotten fruit......I even refrigerate my sugar........Do you want ants, because that's how you get ants. Anyway, I'm coming to visit all of you and just need to know if I need to bring my own fixin's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derackthehunter Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Yes. Yes I do unless it doesn't necessarily need to be put in the fridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumb0 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I like my Sriracha and tobasco refrigerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viperxmns Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I had my Sriracha in the fridge for a long time but now I keep it in the cabinet, since hot sauce doesn't require refrigeration. Ketchup and mustard are in the fridge, since they should be refrigerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunStarHero Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Stuff like ketchup and ranch dressing go into the fridge, as do things like jellies and jams. Banana sauce, hoisin, oyster sauce, plum sauce, etc. go in the pantry. Soy sauce and chocolate/strawberry syrup goes in the fridge. Peanut butter and maple syrup in a plastic bottle go in the cabinet, but maple syrup in a glass bottle gets to go to the fridge. Granulated sugar stays outside the fridge but brown sugar goes in (mostly because I will use plain sugar much faster than any kind of brown sugar).

Skiles Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Personally, I believe that people who don't refrigerate their condiments should be killed. My mom used to leave butter and margarine sitting on the counter. Then she died of cancer. You do the math. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, no, NOOOO.....Peatnut butter and Syrup both go in the fridge.....If you are upset about the consistency, remove for 20 minutes before preparing....I will not have this in my home......I use a 1 lb bag of plain sugar in a month or less....It must be in the fridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Me Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 yeah all my condiments (aside from maple syrup) is in the fridge....but doesnt it say 'refrigerate after opening'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapinator_X Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I almost always refrigerate my condiments, but sometimes I end up slipping up by putting watery condiments like soy sauce and cooking wine in the cabinet. I've been better about it lately, but I still have some of that stuff in the cabinets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacky1980 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 syrup, honey, and peanut butter go in the pantry. sugar and flour in sealed containers on the countertop. coffee in the cupboard. everything else in the fridge. state food sanitation certification for all the win.

Rogue_Alphonse Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Yes, but the only ones I use are katsup (barely) and Stubb's BBQ. Although when I have A1 or Tabasco I don't like it refrigerated... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEXobiologist Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Once its opened, all condiments go in the fridge. I don't before that though. I also don't refrigerate my hot sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judy Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I keep pretty much all condiments, once opened, in the fridge, so I don't see it as strange. Edit: Hot sauce, I guess I don't refrigerate, but it's got so much vinegar that bacteria refuses, lol, so it's no biggie. Salsa goes in the fridge, of course.
