Sources and Food Preservation

1. Why Do We Store Fish and Vegetables in Refrigerators?

  • The temperature inside a refrigerator does not allow the microbes to grow on food.
  • Hence food can be kept fresh for 4-6 days inside a refrigerator.
  • On the other hand, if kept outside, the food will be deteriorated by the growth of microbes on it.
