This bit of information leaves me somewhat confused,a team of experts were asked to review labels on condiments to determine which should go in the fridge and which could stay out. Ketchup which clearly states on the label that it should be refrigerated after opening has no need of refrigeration as the natural acidity of the tomatoes and the amount of vinegar prevent bacterial growth. As for other common condiments,mayonnaise does go in the fridge even though it contains vinegar but all mustard can all stay on the shelf. Another surprise one,at least for me,was maple syrup needs to be kept in the fridge. I'm going to keep putting the things I've always put in the fridge in there with the thought in mind that the more goods in the fridge the easier it is on the fridge to operate efficiently.
