<h5>Fridgescaping? What’s that?</h5><p>People like jumping on fun and exciting trends that can make life more interesting. When a trend spreads across social media, people everywhere try to join the fun. Remember the TikTok dances or the Dalgona coffee trend that took the internet by storm a few years ago?</p><p>Similarly, there's a new social media trend called "fridgescaping". It entails decorating and organising a fridge from the inside as if it were a separate room in the house.</p><p>This trend involves arranging vegetables and fruits in a visually appealing manner, such as placing beans in a vase, using storage items such as coloured glass bottles, or putting embroidered artwork or ceramic ornaments in the fridge.</p><p>The aim is to make the fridge's contents look as attractive as possible. Some are even decorating the interior of their refrigerator with themes inspired by TV shows. They are replacing everyday objects inside their fridge with decorative pieces like picture frames.</p><figure class="image"><img alt="Fridge 2.jpg" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/newsahoot.appspot.com/Fridge_2_b6cc93aa87.jpg"><figcaption>A person who has decorated their fridge.

Kathy Perdue, a retired designer, first coined the term.</p><p>Her take on this concept was different from the trend spreading on social media websites. Her approach was to tidy her fridge before grocery shopping and store the items in attractive containers.</p><p>Perdue initially suggested that organising the fridge would make opening it a more enjoyable experience. However, "fridgescaping" has since evolved beyond her idea into a popular trend where people arrange the contents in an aesthetically pleasing way.</p><h5>The trend has divided people.</h5><figure class="image"><img alt="Fridge 3.jpg" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/newsahoot.appspot.com/Fridge_3_a3e933b2f7.jpg"><figcaption>Fridgescaping.

Some people love the idea of a beautifully decorated fridge, while others think it’s too much, unnecessary, and impractical. Some said keeping a vase of fresh flowers next to food items such as leftover pizza or milk would be weird.</p><p>However, people in favour of this trend point out that fridgescaping has some benefits. Arranging food beautifully, like keeping berries in a basket, can make their food more visible and accessible.</p><p>It can also help reduce wastage as people will notice the items quickly and eat them instead of throwing them away. It can also help with cleanliness. They also feel that decorating the fridge can make cooking more exciting, as people will be inspired to make creative dishes.</p><h5>Health experts issue a warning.</h5><p>Meanwhile, food safety and health experts have pointed out that keeping food next to items like embroidery, ceramic ornaments, etc., could be bad for one’s health. These items can cause the spread of bacteria that can harm a person’s health.</p><p>They also warn that using containers, vases, or other items generally not used to store food can contaminate the food items.</p>
