When was the last time you..............

cleaned the inside of your refrigerator?

I mean take everything out; food, shelves, etc., and that "entity" pulsating in the lower left corner of the frig, and did a thorough cleaning.

I also have to pay more attention to those expiration dates on some of those food items.

That was a bit of a job, but now it's good to go until the next cleaning..2010.

Yeah, you had to remind me... At least the wife cleans the inside. She is the biologist and can deal with all of those strange life forms.

Usually the fridge is pretty clean because I wipe up spills right away. But I give my fridge a good cleaning like that twice a year. Just before Easter and just before Thanksgiving. I pull everything out, and wash down the whole inside and all the shelving and drawers. I also put in a new box of baking soda once a year.

My wife cleans out the fridge on a regular basis, but I try and do my part by making frequent trips for snacks.

I clean out the fridge every year before I lug it up to the dorm room for the next year... I don't keep much in it, so it's not a big deal.

My food fridge? Naw, my wife does that once a month, sometimes every other month.

I cleaned my beer fridge when I bought it. Since then, I've stocked it and cleaned it out a few times.

I wait till the bacon gets hostile and starts attacking the lettus...

When the milk bottle grows a beard, it's time for a cleanout.

When the CDC declairs your fridge a bio-hazard, it's time for a cleanout.

When AlQuida tries to recruit you for your bio-warfare skills, it's time for a cleanout.
