Vote in the poll for every item you would store in your fridge, if you had them in your house.
If you don't tick them, it means you'd keep them in a cupboard.
If you have a pantry you're too lame to join in, soz.

Butter and eggs is all. I rarely cook with eye drops these days.
Butter, Eggs, Honey and Tomatoes. Eye drops of the bottle said to.
Butter, eggs, onions and tomotoes. The latter two only because there's a salad tray in there which makes for convenient storage.
Butter (Lurpak spreadable), ketchup and eye drops.
I don't understand putting eggs in a fridge. They're stored on a shelf and unlike ketchup/other sauces (mustard is the only one I keep out of a fridge once it's opened), they aren't ever opened which cuts their shelf life.
Honey? What?
Honey literally never goes off.
Wait, people put honey in a fridge? Why?
Also.
A fridge stops the ripening process and as such tomatoes never reach their best flavour if you store them in a fridge. Just leave them in your fruit bowl.
You fucking what?
I'm pretty sure it slows it down but can't fathom how it can stop it entirely.
Only eggs.
If you want butter to have a remote chance at being spreadable then the fridge isn't the place. Even Lurpak spreadable goes too hard in the fridge. Tomatoes are best kept at room temperature too.
Can't see the poll on my phone but keeping eggs in the fridge is silly if you're gonna boil them as they'll crack easier.
I think eyedrops are the only one there I'd be bothered about going in the fridge. Tomatoes sometimes are sometimes aren't, more because of space than anything.
Putting honey in the fridge ffs
Why don't supermarkets store eggs in the chiller? But when you buy them they go in the fridge
I fridge eggs because some fridges come with actual compartments for them. SOCIETY HAS CONDITIONED ME! CURSE YOU, FRIDGE MANUFACTURERS!
I voted on what I would keep in there if I decided such things, which was just Eggs, Butter and Tomatoes. However seeing as the Mrs handles most of that stuff we do keep Apples, Potatoes and Ketchup in the fridge too..... no idea why. The only one that bothers me is Ketchup because I don't like it cold, but then I use it about once a month and she uses it every day, so it's fine.
16% of those that voted so far don't keep their butter in the fridge? What the fuck?
Butter, eggs, tomatoes and ketchup.
All in the fucking fridge.
Top threading.

I don't remember to but keeping apples and pears in the fridge is the right move. Cold fruit is lovely.
Eggs? Madness.
I keep the butter on my bedside table.
All veg goes in the veg box. That's why it's got a vegetable sign on it. Eggs go in the fridge because the fridge has an egg tray. Sauces go in the fridge because I'm not a sexual deviant. Eyedrops don't get in my house because I hate the disabled.
edit: My mum puts the butter in the fridge but then has a special pot seperate and puts it in the cupboard so you can spread it but that's far too middle class/having your life together for me
Butter (unless it's real and you want to do anything other than destroy what you put it on), tomatoes (because no matter what you say they're vegetables and they live with the other vegetables) and onions (because I don't have a decent bowl to put them in). Everything else has no business being there.
Speaking of egg holes in a fridge.
I really don't understand it. I get why some put them in the fridge and why it's recommended (they last a few days longer) but the door is the worst place to put them as the temperature isn't constant (which is why only sauces should be kept on the door).
If you're keeping your eggs so long they go off then you should have bought less eggs. The egg frame thing is the first thing in the bin every time I've ever bought a fridge.
I don't have ine of those egg things in my fridge. They're a waste of space.
I'm always eating the last of my eggs a fortnight old and there's never a bother with them out of the fridge. I'm not sure how long they'll actually keep but I've a 2 week routine so I don't run over.
I've never understood ketchup in the fridge. It's going on hot things, so why keep it cold?
The whole egg shelf in the door is simply a money saving thing from fridge manufacturers due to inconsistent treatment of eggs. All eggs in the UK are vaccinated for a variety of things whereas the US (and I believe Germany?) they aren't hence why all eggs are White there as one of the disease prevention things is to sandblast the shells. You never know with stuff here as Co-Op keep their eggs in the fridge but Migros (who specialise in local purchases) don't so I just keep it 100.
I wouldn't personally keep any of those things in the fridge but now, due to outside forces, they're all pretty much in there (not honey though, what the fuck is that about?).
Ketchup was the real eye-opener for me as well.
(don't have any eyedrops, natch)
Ketchup actually says on the bottle that you're meant to keep it in the fridge (well, Heinz does at least) but I still think it's terrible when it's cold. When I lived with my Dad we never kept it in the fridge and it was never an issue.
It's basically vinegar + red, what is there to go off?
And tonnes of sugar. It's basically all preservatives.
It's fucking mega though.
Better or worse than HP?
Tomato goes fucking rank in the fridge you freaks.
Isn't refrigerating ketchup something to do with lowering the risk of salmonella or germs spreading. I'm fussy when it comes to what I keep in the fridge. I don't keep ketchup in there when I know I should, yet I have to keep tomatoes and apples (and grapes) in there even though it's best not to. I've always kept eggs in there even if perhaps you shouldn't, too. I wouldn't dream of keeping potatoes, onions or bread in there. That said I put my sandwiches in the fridge at work, but that's for convenience.
I have to keep every-fucking-thing in the fridge, otherwise all sorts of ant brigades attack it.
Currently in the fridge; cereal, cookies, fruit, chocolate and normal fridge stuff.
That's your own fault for not living in a sensible country.
