Are you storing your milk bottle on the refrigerator door? Bad idea! This seemingly harmless gesture could accelerate its deterioration, alter its taste, and promote the growth of bacteria. Find out why it’s time to change this habit and where to store your milk to keep it fresher and safer for longer!
The refrigerator door: an area to avoid for milk
Did you know that the refrigerator door is the least cold part of the appliance? Every time it is opened, it is exposed to the warm air in the room, which causes constant temperature fluctuations.
The problem? Milk is a very sensitive product, requiring a stable temperature between 0 and 4°C to stay fresh and limit bacterial growth. By storing it in the door, you accelerate its aging and increase the risk of food poisoning.
What are the risks of this bad habit?
