You're using fridge wrong in the heatwave – make 4 changes to keep food safe

A report discusses how the current heatwave in the UK is causing challenges for householders in maintaining safe food storage in their fridges. Many Brits are not adjusting their fridge usage during hot weather, leading to inefficiencies and potential food spoilage. Research indicates that nearly half of Brits do not modify their fridge habits during hotter periods, despite experiencing difficulties. Refrigeration experts advise against overfilling fridges, leaving adequate space for air circulation, and organizing food to ensure optimal cooling. These measures are critical during heatwaves to prevent food from spoiling due to increased temperatures and reduced fridge efficiency.
