There are some things that you should always have in your fridge. Since your refrigerator includes a freezer, freezer items count for this list. The items you have in your fridge are a testament of who you are and how long it’s been since you’ve gone to the grocery store.
You’re always a few days away from dying of thirst. When a solar flare randomly brings our civilization to its knees, you’re going to need some water. But you’ll want it chilled…
Ketchup can arguably go on anything and everything. There’s apparently an etymological argument as to where the word originates. It can go on vegetables and meat and a lot of other stuff.
It apparently eliminates odors in your fridge. You can also use it to put out a small grease fire, and since most people keep theirs in the cupboard above the stovetop, you will be prepared.
These condiments are at war with one another. The mayonnaise people against the Miracle Whip people. Some people like putting mayonnaise on things. They’re normally wrong.
This is great if you’re a coffee drinker and can’t take the bitter power of a full cup of unadulterated joe.
Eggs are cheap. They are required for many, many baked-good recipes. They are a great breakfast food. Eggs fill you up. They can be thrown at people, cars, and houses (don’t do that).
There are many types of cheeses. American cheese might not be “cheese,” but that’s ok. You’ll want either Gouda, provolone, Parmesan, Romano, cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss. There are others. You are the arbiter of the cheeses that go in and out of your fridge.
Again, another food that goes in practically every baked good. It changes a regular, old, stupid meal into a fine-dining meal. This is a need-to-have-item in terms of making confections and living a full life.
Not necessarily the most necessary of the items, but it is always nice to have cups of these delicious, small pots of gold at your disposal.
This one is debatable since it goes bad so quickly. Use this in many recipes and…breakfast.
You never know when you’ll run out of bread. When you’re poor, this is a detrimental event. No more boloney sandwiches. No more toast in the morning. No more replacing entire meals with sandwiches.
Whether you’re making a daiquiri, making a smoothie, baking something, or making a sauce—these come in handy.
Fresh produce goes bad pretty quickly. There’s no way around mother nature failing to cater to humans. So freeze it.
Many people would say this is essential. You just want to unwind, you’re having a get-together and don’t want to have to go out, or you might have an insatiable urge for hops. Beer and cider are always good to have on hand. Hard liquors aren’t a necessity unless you run out of antiseptic.
There are many varieties and they’re all bad for you. You should always have them in your fridge. You want a root beer, Coca Cola (or Pepsi), and a citrus soft drink.
These last for a long time in your crisper drawer. They go well with a bunch of foods. If you’re hungry enough, add salt and viola.
These are a lifesaver when you can afford to keep them in stock and haven’t prepared anything for the day. Though no one eats these 24/7, I’m sure many have tried and met an early demise.
