Why Is The Food In My Crisper Freezing?
When the refrigerator temperature is set too low cold air often settles at the bottom of the fridge. This results in the crisper drawer freezing food before other items are affected. Generally, a refrigerator’s temperature should be between 37-42°F to avoid freezing but still keep food cool.
How do you keep vegetables from freezing in a crisper?
If foods in the crisper, deli and/or snack drawers are freezing: Make sure the drawers/bins are at least 1/2 full. If the drawer has an adjustable temperature feature and items are freezing, adjust the drawer to a warmer temperature setting.
Why is my fridge suddenly freezing everything?
The optimum temperature range for storing fresh food is between 36 – 38 degrees Fahrenheit or below 40 degrees. If your food is freezing, then it is possible that your fridge’s temperature setting was accidentally set too low. This is a common problem that can lead to your refrigerator freezing food.
