In case you’re not familiar, Bridgerton is a historical romance series created for Netflix that’s set in the early 1800s in London and follows young eligible men and women of nobility who are being introduced into society. One of the things the series has sent into trending mode is “fridgescaping.” In essence, fridgescaping is when people take the time and care to decorate the inside of their refrigerators – landscaping, but for your refrigerator. Users can be as creative with their fridgescaping as they choose, with some opting for highly ornate food storage containers, while others incorporate standalone ornaments, picture frames, mirrors and figurines. However, the FDA has expressed concerns about the hygienic safety of the trend. The government watchdog has warned that items not commonly associated with food or its packaging could be a health hazard, and stressed the importance of keeping fresh produce in sealed bags or containers to avoid contamination. It also reminds members of the public that refrigerators should be kept at between 32º and 41º F and that raw food should be kept covered at all times.
