Do you keep bread in the fridge?

You shake the bottle, don't you shake the bottle before using it anyway?

I just shook a ketchup bottle which had been left out of the fridge (the missus just doesn't get it, man), and still got the manky water. I also got it on monday with a bottle of American mustard which was in the fridge.

That's probably because it is more dense as it is cold, at room temperature it'll be less dense.

Naan bread goes under a grill for a couple of minutes. Then gets eaten.

My dad puts it in the toaster for some strange reason.

And trust me, I'm not one of these zero-immune system, Calpol-glugging pussies. I eat rotten strawberries by cutting them up and I eat meat that was cooked 5 days prior. 90% of my shopping is reduced quality food from Waitrose that will last up to a week or even more after the "use by" date. Honestly I can't imagine what people would do these days without a refrigerator. It's all bollocks. Just strawberry floating boil the crap out of it if you're worried about bacteria, which we're meant to be mostly immune to anyway. I don't eat bread much because of the wheat (I'm allergic), so it lasts for ages, and eventually goes off. So I keep it longer by refrigerating it.

It makes it taste weird though. I have to let it warm up or toast it.

I can't stand the sight of people throwing away great food just because the number printed on it says so. If it's not rotten, mouldy, gone a weird colour, liquidised or smell bad, there is nothing wrong with it. And if you still think there is, melt the cheese, boil the fish, toast the bread, microwave the sausage.

Fantastic way for supermarkets to get you to shop twice as often as you need to, isn't it?

And no, you don't need to refrigerate ketchup for gooseberry fool, since its almost entirely sugar and vinegar, which is self preseving as bacteria don't eat sugar. Mold does, but you simply remove it.

I believe the term to be viscosity...?
