Living without a refrigerator

[MGnoob]

Is anybody else living without a refrigerator?

I’m just curious, I can’t be the only one.

You really don’t need one.

 

[Marty McFly]

Now free yourself of a toilet if you really want to be a free man.

Seriously. Say wha?

 

[MadatMarek]

What would I sleep in?

 

[Rockrivr1]

I have two and there’s just the two of us in the house. We still have times where there is no room. Can’t imagine not having at least one. Same with my dishwasher and central air!

Do you have a freezer? We fill two large freezers just with game meat.

Do you have a freezer? We fill two late freezers just with game meat.

Your low key rubbing it in right here.

Living that Montana dream.

You can live without a lot of things.

But, why would you?

 

[not new guy]

Where do you keep your cheese?

 

[Welder1]

I’d like to hear more about this. We have 3 freezers and I main fridge. I like to buy for the long haul. Definitely interested in perspective without one

 

[slap shot]

Sure, in the winter.

I just use the box it came in.

I would NOT call THAT living without a fridge.

Maybe using it for an alternate purpose tho...

 

[Knob Creek]

Two reefers and a chest freezer just for the two of us.

Forget the fridge. Want to change your life? Live without a TV. You'll be amazed when you realize how much of your life you've wasted sitting on your ass watching other people pretend to do stuff.

Whoah whoah whoah. Let's not go overboard here.

Something to be said about that. Lamborghini doesn’t bother doing commercials because they said “people who buy our cars don’t watch TV”. I guess you can say the same for any car at that cost.

Well no worries there. I'm not interested in owning their product.

I don’t have a microwave and haven’t had one in 4 years or so. I only miss it once in a great while.

There’s no reason from me not having one other than not needing it often enough to justify the purchase.

 

[240Geezer]

And 2 chest freezers and a standard refrigerator.
Thinking of adding a second. this one seems to be full of lettuce and vegetables.

 

[Picton]

A lot of stuff we refrigerate doesn't really need to be. Cheese, butter, eggs, all those things keep well enough at room temp.

But I've got kids. So I buy milk and I end up with leftover food. So I need a fridge. Plus, how else would I chill my beer?

Drink it 1800s style. Warm. It sucks that way but it’s still beer.

On a serious note, interesting topic. With just the two of us now, outrageous price of grocery and store being two minutes away, we buy way less. The fridge is half empty, always. We go to the store two to three times a week, getting just what we need. No waste and nothing gets thrown out. We could almost get away without the fridge. But definitely need the freezers.

 

[Rockrivr1]

No waste and nothing gets thrown out.

I wish we could say that. We tend to be big eaters and make more then we should. Sometimes we eat the leftovers and sometimes it just sits in the fridge. It’s unfortunate but we throw more food away then we should.

Only the first 10 suck

We will have some leftovers at times but it becomes my lunch and even at times breakfast. Eating it for breakfast stops me from eating junk. We have little to no junk anymore because it's just expensive. This inflation thing has one benefit; my diet has improved dramatically!

Is a fridge like a freezer where it cost less to run if full? If so I wonder if it's worth filling some space with filler

Why would I do that?

I have a fridge!

I think that most on NES already subscribe to your theory, except for the life wasting sitting on your ass part!
