The basis is a clean refrigerator
You should always store all food in a perfectly clean refrigerator. Of course, this also applies to them. Therefore, always clean or wash them properly, depending on the type, and then dry them properly.
Odor hazard
Even though you take care of your fridge, you may be surprised by unpleasant odors from time to time. As a rule, they are shed from strongly aromatic foods, or from possible rot or mold. Therefore, check the contents of the refrigerator regularly and store foods with a strong aroma in resealable containers.
Risks of high humidity and frost
Another risk for the shelf life of food in the refrigerator is excessive humidity. It can be caused by the old age of the appliance, poor door sealing, but also poor food storage. As a rule, the formation of a layer of frost occurs before long.
Toilet paper is a lifesaver
The mentioned toilet paper will easily help you with the aforementioned problems. It can absorb not only unpleasant odors, but also perfectly absorbs excess moisture.

How to use paper

A handful of freshly ground coffee on a plate or a bowl of baking soda can also be used to eliminate the smell from the refrigerator. A lemon or an apple cut into slices will do a similar service. A glass of vinegar or a bag of rice also works.
