I finally realized I've been wrapping leftovers totally wrong my whole life
Last week I pulled out a container of chili I made on Sunday and it was already fuzzy on top by Thursday. I always just put the lid on tight and shoved it in the fridge. My buddy who cooks for a living saw me do it and laughed, said I'm trapping heat in and creating condensation. Now I leave the lid cracked for 10 minutes before sealing and it's been night and day difference. Anyone else learn a basic fridge habit way later than they should have?

Yeah, I was today years old when I learned that too. Guess I've been breeding mold in my fridge like a science experiment.

Bet that's how we accidentally invent new penicillin strains in our kitchen. My crisper drawer is basically a biohazard zone at this point.
