Refrigeration has dramatically altered how we store and consume food since its inception, leading to profound impacts on food availability, diversity, and safety. The home refrigerator, which is now 110 years old, has facilitated the transportation and preservation of perishable goods. User discussions suggest mixed feelings about the modern food landscape, raising concerns about industrial agricultural practices, food diversity, and the quality of frozen versus fresh produce. Some commenters defend the availability of diverse food options year-round due to refrigeration, while others worry about the loss of taste and nutrition from industrialized food production. The societal habits surrounding refrigeration, such as the average of 107 fridge openings a day per household, indicate a deep integration of this technology in daily life, though some claims (like the diversity of technological options) are met with skepticism.
