Can Your Refrigerator Kill You?

Temperatures vary, so stash foods in just the right place to keep them safe.

On the door: It's about seven degrees warmer here, so this isn't the place for perishables like eggs, milk, or yogurt, no matter how perfect the fit. OK on the door: condiments, sodas, butter.

Inside shelves: Eggs (in the original carton), luncheon meats, leftovers, dairy products or any food that says "refrigerate when opened" are best here.
