Heartbreak Ridge Full Movie Part 1
Cold truth about your fridge reveals you're not keeping in cold enough. Mouldy vegetables, week- old ham or a plate of leftovers from Sunday lunch … Chances are that most of what you’ll find in the recesses of your fridge will end up in the bin. According to a study by supermarket chain Sainsbury’s, British households throw away seven million tonnes of food waste every year — the equivalent of six meals a week. And the surprising reason is that 7. Just turning down the temperature could prevent up to 4. Watch The Outlaw Josey Wales Online Metacritic on this page. So what temperature should your fridge be, and which shelves are best for what foods? Here SARAH RAINEY presents the ultimate guide …HOW TO GET THE FRIDGE TEMPERATURE RIGHTFirst things first: the temperature in your fridge isn’t constant.
The fridge is cooled by a gas, known as refrigerant vapour, which flows in liquid form inside a coil in the fridge and absorbs heat in the air. The closer foods are to the coil (which is usually found on the lower shelf, as hot air rises), the colder those foods will be. Experts say the optimum overall temperature for a household fridge is between 0c and 4c. Leading food safety expert Dr Lisa Ackerley says this is to prevent the growth of listeria — a harmful food poisoning bacterium that grows and spreads at temperatures above 5c.‘Bacteria grow very slowly the lower the temperature,’ she adds. ‘Keeping your fridge below four degrees centigrade — but not below zero, the freezing temperature of water, which will turn the water in foods to ice — will ensure that it stays fresh for longer.’A TOO- FULL FRIDGE COULD SPOIL YOUR FOODThe more stuffed your fridge shelves become, the harder it is to keep cool. Just like a crowded room, a full fridge will be naturally warmer than an empty one. Experts recommend turning down the thermostat by one degree if you’ve totally filled it.
Nor will an empty fridge be very efficient. To prevent the cooling mechanism from working too hard and the fridge getting too cold, it’s advisable to keep a couple of jugs of water in the fridge to fill up space. Or you can turn the temperature setting up a notch.
Ideally, a fridge should be around three- quarters full to allow cold air to circulate unhindered and prevent pockets of heat from forming. HOW WILL I KNOW IF IT’S TOO WARM? Aside from food going off before its best- before date, there are several signs to alert you that your fridge is at the wrong temperature. If you have a modern fridge with a built- in digital thermometer, it will tell you — and some, such as most Bosch models, are fitted with an alarm which sounds when the temperature goes above 4c or drops below 0c. In an older fridge that’s too warm, you may see condensation forming on the inside walls. This shows that the air in the fridge is turning from gas to liquid, which may contaminate food on the lower shelves. If it’s too cold, there may be clusters of ice visible at the back.
This could also be caused by a faulty door allowing warm air from the outside into the fridge. This tricks the refrigerant vapour into thinking that it’s warmer than it is, so it absorbs more heat than necessary, causing the temperature to drop and ice crystals to form. WHY DO SOME FOODS START TO FREEZE? Though most of us have never bothered to look, almost all supermarket foods have a recommended storage temperature written on their packaging (normally between 3c and 5c). Some foods — such as hard cheeses (which can be stored up to 1. This isn’t harmful to our health, says Dr Ackerley, but it may affect the taste of the foodstuffs. Lettuce is mostly made of water, so the cell structure is destroyed when it freezes‘Frozen cheese won’t harm you — just move it to another part of the fridge,’ she says.‘As for salad, it will not be nice to eat if it goes soggy.
Lettuce is mostly made of water, so the cell structure is destroyed when it freezes.’If your fridge is fitted with a ‘crisper drawer’, store lettuce here instead. It seals in water vapour at around 2c, which keeps greens moist and crisp. DO I NEED TO BUY A THERMOMETER? Experts recommend buying a separate digital thermometer, even if you have a high- tech modern fridge. They say it’s the only guaranteed way of ensuring a constant temperature.‘It’s best to use a thermometer,’ says Dr Ackerley.
Some fridges have an air cool system that distributes the temperature evenly, but in most fridges the lower parts may be cooler and the top door shelves warmer.’Most supermarkets and hardware stores sell battery- operated thermometers that can be affixed to the inside of the door by a magnet or hooked onto a shelf.

A recent study by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers found that even when the fridge door is closed, changes in outside temperature can cause changes to the inside temperature of the fridge.

Dr Ackerley says these are minimal, though. The fridge should be well enough insulated for it not to matter what the temperature is outside.
But if it’s very hot, try to avoid leaving the fridge door open as this will allow cold air out and warm it up.’If you are concerned your fridge is getting too hot or too cold, adjust the temperature — but no more than one degree either way, and never outside the 0- 4c range. WHAT CAN’T YOU PUT IN THE FRIDGE? Compared with three or four decades ago, we’re compulsive fridge- users.
However, plenty of everyday foods don’t actually need to be kept cold. Professor Paul Berryman, a food science expert and visiting professor at the University of Reading, says some of these are taste- related, while other foods can undergo harmful reactions at lower temperatures.‘Bananas, for example, go black in the fridge,’ he explains. The cold temperature makes the plant cell vacuoles leak. The liquid contains phenolic compounds which react with an enzyme to form a brown substance called melanin. Compared with three or four decades ago, we’re compulsive fridge- users.
However, plenty of everyday foods don’t actually need to be kept cold like bananas‘The same is true of bread. The cool temperature of a fridge makes it go stale faster, due to the effects on the starch.’Other foodstuffs that should be kept out of the fridge are soft fruit such as peaches and plums (they need to be allowed to ripen), bitter (which tastes better unchilled) and potatoes. The starch in potatoes is converted to sugar at a low temperature, and when baked or fried, the sugar reacts to form a harmful chemical called acrylamide. CAN I USE IT TO STORE LEFTOVERS? There’s no problem keeping leftovers in the fridge, as long as they’re well sealed (Tupperware containers are best) and cooled to room temperature first.‘Cooling quickly is the key control to make sure it’s safe,’ says Dr Ackerley.
Decant leftovers into small portions and cool to room temperature in no more than two hours, then put them in the fridge. To speed cooling, put containers of food on ice and refresh pasta or rice with cold water.’The fast cooling process prevents the growth of bacteria in leftovers. Take particular care with cooked rice. Bacillus cereus — a bacterium that accounts for 5 per cent of all UK food poisoning — starts to produce toxic spores as soon as the rice cools. Chilling it properly slows down bacterial growth. WHAT ABOUT OPEN JARS AND TINS? Though it’s fine to keep a half- eaten portion of baked beans in the fridge, don’t store them in the tin. Not only can the metal give the food an unpleasant taste, but chemicals used to treat the inside of the aluminium can react with what’s inside.
To stop toxins from contaminating the air of the fridge, ensure any open jars are tightly sealed. Though it’s fine to keep a half- eaten portion of baked beans in the fridge, don’t store them in the tin.
