Is your refrigerator always disorganized? You should really clean it frequently so it doesn't get unpleasant smells and, of course, to avoid food waste. For example, Meredith Carothers, a food safety specialist, quoted in Better Homes and Gardens, advises that "once a week, make it a habit to throw out perishables that are past their prime".
In addition, she recommends that you "clean up spills immediately", but also that you always clean the surfaces of the appliance "with hot, soapy water and rinse".
To avoid clutter, you need to store food in the most correct way. For example, raw meat should be placed on a plate or on top of something that catches the liquids that it often loses and that contain bacteria, explains the specialist.
You should also always place "perishables in the front so you remember to use them before they go bad", as well as label containers with leftovers so you know how long you've had them in the refrigerator.
