7. Apples
Most types of fruits are better when kept out of the refrigerator. Flavor and texture will be better maintained when kept at temperatures that are warmer than refrigeration. Apples will usually last 1 or 2 weeks when kept at room temperature.
6. Spices
Most ground spices can be safely stored for years without refrigeration. Not only is there not any benefit to storing spices at a colder temperature, but the flavor may be affected. If a spice has been stored at room temperature for a year or more, smelling it will determine if it is still good. If it has lost its aroma it probably won’t make you ill, it just is no longer effective.
