10 Foods You Should Never Refrigerate


Refrigerators are great - they keep our drinks cool and our food fresh. However, despite our tendency to just toss whatever food we have into the fridge, there are certain foods that will fare much better outside of the cold environment than in it. Here are 10 most common foods people keep in the fridge, but shouldn't.

1. Tomatoes
The fridge does keep tomatoes fresh, but it does so by stopping the process of ripeness. Consequently they lose their flavor. In addition the refrigerator also changes the texture of the tomato, making it powdery or floury. Tomatoes are best kept out of cold environments.

2. Basil
 
When one keeps fresh basil in refrigeration, it withers very quickly, but before it withers all the way and becomes unusable, it absorbs the taste of the foods kept closest to it. Basil is best kept outside the fridge and in a glass of fresh water, just like flowers.

3. Potatoes
The cold temperatures in the fridge turns the starch in the potato into sugar at a faster pace than normal, and we're left with a sweet yet grainy potato. Keep your potatoes in a sealed sack and in a cool and dry place. They should be covered, because being exposed to sunlight makes them grow sprouts. 
Tip: Keep an apple between them to keep them fresh!

4. Onions
The dampness in the fridge makes onions soft and moldy. The best place to keep onions is in a cool and dry place, outside the fridge. Green onions can be kept in the fridge because of their high percentage of water content. Do not keep onions next to the potatoes, because it will make them rot quicker.

5. Avocado
If you're waiting for an avocado to ripen, you should never put it in the fridge. However, if the avocado has already ripened, placing it in the fridge will prevent it from going bad.

6. Garlic
When we keep garlic in the refrigerator, it will grow green stalks. Also, it'll get a moldy, sticky texture. It is best to keep garlic in a dry, cool place.

7. Bread
When it comes to bread, there are a number of options. If you are going to use sliced bread within a few days, it can be kept in the fridge. If you intend on storing the bread for a longer period of time, keep in the freezer.

8. Olive Oil
Olive oil should be kept somewhere dark and cool - when placed in the refrigerator, it freezes and its texture becomes similar to butter. That said, you can thaw it again to its original state.

9. Coffee
Storing coffee in the fridge makes it lose its flavor quickly and absorb the flavor of foods stored near it. Coffee should be kept somewhere dark and cool. However, if you want to keep a large amount of coffee at home, you can keep it in the depths of the freezer - not near the door.

10. Honey
One of the most fascinating facts about honey is that it never goes bad. There is no reason to keep it in the fridge, in fact it should be avoided as the cold temperatures will solidify it. Honey is best kept at room temperature.

108,000 TEMPLES IN INDIA !

Picture shows Somanathapura temple of Keshava
HOW MANY TEMPLES ARE THERE IN INDIA? by S Swaminathan
The number of Hindu temples in India is a puzzle. Nobody bothered to count them, because they are innumerable. Moreover Hindus are not that keen to record such immaterial things. But days are changing. Our children living in western countries ask such questions and embarrass us. My calculation shows that we have  a readily available list of 108,000 temples. But my guess is that we must have at least 600,000 temples !
India is an agricultural country. We have 638,000 villages, 5000 towns and 400 big cities. A Tamil proverb says DON'T LIVE IN A TOWN WHERE THERE IS NO TEMPLE. A Sanskrit proverb says SEEING A TEMPLE TOWER GIVES YOU A 10 MILLION GOOD THINGS (Gopura dharsanam, Koti Punyam). So going by this, we must have over 600,000 temples. My research into the Tribal people of India (I have a big collection of articles on Tribal Peoples of South India) shows that they have also got a place of worship.

ARUNACHALESHWARA TEMPLE IN TIRUVANNAMALAI
Our parents have taught us why we should go to temples instead of worshipping at home:
Temples teach you to AIM HIGH IN LIFE (look at the tall towers)
Temples teach you to THINK BIG AND ACHIEVE IT (our kings thought about huge temples, planned them and built them)
Temples teach you GOOD THINGS ARE NEVER DESTROYED (look how many years they have been standing in spite of thousands of foreign invasions)
Temples teach you COMMUNITY SPIRIT (think together, work together and execute together)
Temples KEEP YOU FIT MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY (temples are huge, when you walk through the corridors, you do big exercise. The festivals in temples lift your spirit)
Temples HELP YOU TO FOCUS ATTENTION (you develop concentration power)
Temples are POWER HOUSES (they charge your battery because great saints like Adi Sankara,Ramanuja, Madhwa, Vallabha, Chaitanya, Alvars, Nayanmars,Nivrutti, Gnandev, Sopana,Muktabhai, Eknath, Namdev,Tukaram,Ramdas, Tamil Siddhars  and hundred thousand more saints have stored their energy in the temples for generations to come).
Adi Shankara has installed Jan Akarshan (attracting people) and Dhan Akarshan (attracting money) Chakras in Varanasi ad Tirupati.


TIRUPATI BALAJI TEMPLE

VARANASI
The government list of temples is as follows:
Tamil Nadu—34,000 temples

MADURAI MEENAKSHI TEMPLE
Andhra Pradesh—43,000 temples
Karnataka—34, 000 temples
Kerala—28,000 Bagavathy temples (Travancore and Cochin Devaswam Board –TCDB-alone has 1800 temple)

BHAGAVATI TEMPLE IN KERALA
(Four South Indian States alone total over 108,000 temples!!!)
Maharashtra—45,000 temples
Mathura Brindhavan area—5000 temples
Himachal Pradesh—over 2000 temples and sacred places
Along the banks of 1500 mile long Holy Ganges, thousands of sacred places! And along the 1500 mile long Himalayas every foot is considered sacred place. No need to mention about Badrinath, Kedarnath and Kailash.
Kancheepuram near Chennai alone has 108 temples. Madurai in Tamil Nadu has 50 temples.

KANCHI KAMAKSHI TEMPLE IN KANCHEEPURAM
The list is not exhaustive. I couldn't get exact figures for many states. Since the revenue of South Indian temples are used (or misused) by the state governments, the figures come out very often in news papers. The richest temples in the world are in South India. Tirupati Balaji temple, Tiruvananthapuram Anantha Padhmanabha Swamy Temple, Sabarimalai Ayyappan Temple, Madurai Meenakshi Temple, Palani Murugan Temple, Udupi Krishnan Temple and Guruvayur KrishnanTemple.
Puri Jagannath Temple in Orissa, Vashno Devi temple in Kashmir,Siddhi Vinayak Temple in Mumbai, Somnath Temple in Gujarat, Kasi Viswanath Temple in Varanasi,Uttar Pradeshare rich.
PURI JAGANNATH TEMPLE IN ORISSA
These rich temples are like Kamadhenu (wish fulfilling sacred cow), Karpaka Vriksham (wish fulfilling tree) and Akshaya Patram (Magic Vessel that supplies you food for ever) for governments.

ANANTHA PADMANABHA SWAMY TEMPLE TRIVANDRUM
Balaji Temple of Tirupati attracts more crowd than Lourdes in France and Vatican City in Italy. Anantha Padhmanabha Swamy's treasure vaults contain the richest treasure in the world. A charge has been made by a foreign writer, Stephen Knapp, in a book titled Crimes against India and the need to protect Vedic Tradition, published in the United States and it makes shocking reading. Now and then the Indian Newspapers also give us statistics of how the revenue from the Hindu Temples are transferred to state exchequers and used for secular, sometimes, even anti religious activities..
