I do believe this graphic is referring to the storage of various fruits and vegetables, and not immediate consumption. Personally, I don't think there's anything more delicious than a cold piece of melon or kiwi but maybe that's just me.Also, I store potatoes and onions at the bottom of my fridge, like my Mother did...but perhaps that's just the climate I live in. My pantry isn't a "cool dark place" as they tell you to store onions and potatoes. And I generally keep zucchini on the counter...hey, wait a minute. Have I been doing it wrong all these years? What do you do?
