To do or to not do that is the question.

Items in dispute with MrsJW (although I've given up disputing) include:

- sauces, condiments, pickles and relishes (e.g. tomato sauce, HP sauce, barbeque sauce, chillie sauce, hoy sin sauce, mustards, mustard pickle, gherkins, beetroot slices etc. etc.).
- condensed milk.

I say no, she says yes. I say if you need to put them in the fridge then you've bought too big a bottle darling.

Anyway, the main problem is that I can't find the condensed milk when I want a condensed milk sandwich, because it's hidden somewhere in amongst the other stuff.

And yes, I used to use a teaspoon to scrape up the left-over cake mix from the bowl when Mum used to make cakes.

OMG I struggle through a starburst these days because they're too sweet. How the hell do you manage that?

Just about to ask the same.

Ah, well, showing my age I suppose. Condensed milk, and brown sugar, sandwiches were both incomparable delicacies and luxuries of my childhood. Two slices of bread (white of course) thickly spread with imported NZ butter, topped by lashings of the aforesaid Nestle's condensed milk or brown sugar. Often given to children for their school lunches, but more often than not consumed on the way to school in the mornings.

You younger chaps don't know what you've missed out on.

Very Anglo of course.

Johnno will confirm all the above. And the scraping of the mixing bowl.

I'm only mid 20s but nothing would cause fights more than who got to do this in our household when we were kids

Same. Probably better than eating the actual cake itself

Always hated the taste of the wooden spoon. Always forgot and would lunge for the lick and always always regret it and search quickly for a replacement stainless or plastic spoon.

Just to kick of some more debate. Things I don't store in the fridge:

Butter, Vegemite, jams, tomato sauce, peanut butter, eggs, soy sauce, chilli sauce.

Agree with all of those. Our eggs go in the fridge but only for space, more than happy to leave them out.

Butter - Pantry, unless I'm getting irked by how quickly we're going through it. That's when it goes in fridge.

Vegemite - pantry

jams - pantry

tomato sauce - pantry

peanut butter - pantry

eggs - fridge. Not a space issue. Dunno why I do this though.

soy sauce - pantry

chilli sauce - pantry

My fridge.

Sauce any (soy , chilli, tomatoe bbq worschestershire)

Ajvar.

Some weird preserved apricots that mother in law put in their when we got married but for some reason were not allowed to throw out (greeks).

Vegemite which on toast for me is the best breakfast. 

Pantry. Any carbo dry stuff.

By the way I got 2 fridges always full. Garage one is basically drinks.

Heres the ethnic version. 

Hungarian Salami: Fridge

Ajvar: Fridge 

Ogorki: Fridge 

Humus: Fridge

Taramosalata: Fridge

Kielbasa: Fridge 

20 litre drum on olive oil: Bottom cupboard (We don't know that word, "pan tree")

 

Ethnic version of this question should be what do you store in the Main Fridge and what do you store in the Second Fridge or even Third Fridge.

This.

Cured meats and extra blocks of cheese, additional alcohol for random relative showings, in the second fridge. All the things on HeartFC list in the first fridge unless you have a litre tub of each that you got off your wog mate then second fridge. Third fridge is purely alcohol unless you have fresh seafood or meat prepared for the days event. 

Also more often than not the second fridge will be the furthest away with the first fridge and third within closer proximity.
