Your vegetables will be conveniently kept out of sight and out of mind, so that next week you can throw them away because they rotted and replace them with new vegetables you will also forget about

It's this one. The fridge drawer acts as a monument to my past hubris

[-] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 60 points 2 months ago

Whenever you open ur fridge door all of the cold air tries to make a break for the exit the veggie drawer is like supermax, keeps your shit on lockdown when you open the door

All Crispers Are Bastards

It keeps vegetables fresh and crispy with state-of-the-art technology

[-] Chana@hexbear.net 37 points 2 months ago

It retains humidity a bit and that keeps vegetables fresher longer. It also helps mold grow so eat your veggies while they're fresh.

Keeping your veggies in plastic bags or cups of water (like cilantro in a cup of water) is even better but who am I, the queen? I usually just chuck that stuff in there however it came from the market.

Plastic bag + and paper towls tends to help

Costs more I guess but lasts longer. Depends how quickly you go through vegetables.

[-] Chana@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

That does help! It is also a way to sprout things, so a doubly useful technique.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 35 points 2 months ago

Keeps the rotting vegetables off of everything else when you forget about them because you put them in a separate drawer for some reason.

he draws vegetables

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago

It's the crisper. It makes vegetables crispy.

[-] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

It also inserts genes.

Not sure how that helps the vegetables.

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago

I don't know, I keep my veggies on the top shelf so I can remember they exist

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 16 points 2 months ago

It keeps your tomatoes from ever getting truly ripe, always slightly tough and chewey and bitter.

[-] Palacegalleryratio@hexbear.net 28 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Don’t keep tomatoes in the fridge! They should be room temperature. Cold tomatoes taste of nothing!

[-] Des@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago

i dunno i have various hemp terpenes and concentrates down in there. maybe some antibiotics and an exotic anti-inflammatory drug as well

[-] DengistDonnieDarko@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

yeah

it holds vegetals

[-] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

it holds cheese that my girlfriend puts in there until it becomes moldy after she forgot about it for over a year because no one ever opens the vegetable drawer

[-] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

Mine has a little slider so it can go Fruit Mode or Vegetable Mode. The real question is WTF that slider do?

[-] stink@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 2 months ago

I fink it controls da humidi'y

[-] dadarobot@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 2 months ago

i saw an adhd life hack that said keep all your perishables in the door, and keep all your sauces in the drawers. sounds compelling to me, but i keep forfetting to do it.

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

keeping perishables in the door makes them go bad quicker since you keep swinging them out into the warmer air, but keeping them within line of sight is probably a good idea

[-] Lyudmila@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

My wife uses ours as a cheese drawer. shrug-outta-hecks

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Damn that's a lot of cheese, you must be the crakkkest hexbear

[-] godlessworm@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

you mean the sock drawer? why would they put a drawer for vegetables in a fridge when it doesn't do anything? it's to put your socks in. it's called a crisper because they get cold and crispy.

[-] M68040@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Further question: does the deli drawer in the fridge do anything?

[-] lelkins@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 2 months ago

i put beer in it luole
