Sure, but here are the facts:
1. Very few things should be kept in the refrigerator more than a few days due to risk of contamination. Garlic and oil is recommended no more than seven days
2. Under normal refrigeration, to it's fine to keep garlic and oil in a non airtight container, as supported by the above links
I didn't suggest any longer term storage and the idea that I'm espousing something dangerous is somewhat silly given those facts.
- medstrom 6y agoI actually disagree with #1. I've kept food for months without issue. Like, eggs can be good for about six months past the use-by date. Yogurt for one month past. I bake bread dough and let it rise in the fridge for up to 14 days (lends it a nice alcoholic flavor). C. botulinum is just an especially nefarious threat because it won't make the food smell bad: an invisible poison.
- nkozyra 6y agoWell given I said "very few things" I can't see the disagreement.
