There’s a big Twitter debate right now about whether you need to store ketchup in the fridge. People were shocked by the experts saying that ketchup should not go in the fridge. The article on the British website “Which?” says, quote, “There’s no need to keep ketchup in the fridge. Not only does it contain vinegar, but tomatoes are naturally acidic, and this helps to preserve the product in room temperature conditions.”
