21 Foods You Should Never Refrigerate

12. Bananas

If you put bananas in the refrigerator hoping to keep them fresh, you may find them turning black even quicker because of the impact the temperature has on the fruit’s cell walls. Also, bananas need room temperature to ripen correctly; cool temperatures will halt this process.

13. Potatoes

Potatoes are never fit for a fridge because cold temperatures turn starch into sugar much sooner than at room temperature. Too much sugar can make potatoes discolored and less tasty. Just keep your potatoes unwashed in a cool and dry place. That way, they’ll last longer and won’t turn too hard before cooking.
