This tip is super simple and will teach you how to organize your refrigerator correctly, helping you avoid food contamination and extending their shelf life. We will start from the top of the refrigerator downwards.
First, dairy products, cheeses, yogurts, butter, etc. (except for milk) should be placed here, as their temperature remains consistent for a longer time. At the same height in the door, jars of jams and dressings should go.

Next, you should store cooked food, leftovers, and opened cans. In the middle shelf and in the door (at the same level), place eggs and condiments.
2
On the bottom shelf of the refrigerator, all raw foods, such as meat, chicken, fish, and seafood should go. These should be well-contained to prevent blood or ice liquid from dripping and contaminating other foods, and because the temperature is lower in this area of the refrigerator. In the door at this height, you should place bottles like sodas, milk, etc.

In the drawers, you should store all vegetables and fruits, separating them by the moisture they contain in the two compartments.
