I find that anything I put in the crisper drawer will always go bad because I forget to look in there

I just tossed out some melted lettuce for the same reason. :(

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 8 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Wait, wilted or straight up melted?

Cause if it straight up melted, how long has it been in there?! Was it still green when it broke down into its most basic form?

"decomposed" may be a better word for it. If you leave lettuce and other leafy greens for too long they eventually break down into a watery green sludge that you have to bury under something else in the garbage so no one else will see it and blame you lol

Not the person you asked but I have 100% had greens (I don't think it was lettuce, maybe mustard) that I can only have described as melted. They turn from a normal leafy green into this nasty green sludge. I don't know how long there were in there but I'm sure it was months.

Didn't you notice the smell

I've had lettuce "melt" overnight. Lettuce can easily freeze if the fridge has to run hard to cool something large down and the lettuce is close to where the air comes out of the condensor. Then when the fridge is at an idle state, the lettuce thaws and is just mush.

Sounds like you need to clean your fridge. (With a vacuum)

I heard advice that you should store your condiments in there and fruits and veggies just go on the regular shelves. They may spoil a bit faster on the shelves, but you'll remember to use them.

I store a big bag of carrots in my crisper bc they keep so long and I always throw a couple in whatever I'm cooking, but leafy greens, broccoli, etc go on the shelves.
