I live in the south of France (in an apartment) and use no heating or air conditioning all year long (as well as no hot water, no fridge/freezer), no need for me, it saves money, and pretty good for the planet
- CodeGlitch 5y agoHow do you live without a fridge? Where do you put all your cheese? :)
- halfdan 5y agoGet it fresh from the market, consume immediately?

- MandieD 5y agoThe French seem to have a somewhat different view of cheese than we (Americans) do - it’s a living thing, and why would you put a living thing in the fridge? Related: eggs are stored and sold at room temperature in Germany. The first time I saw that kind of display, I thought some grocery manager had lost their mind. No, perfectly normal, and safe enough. Watch the refrigerate by dates on the carton.
- genewitch 5y agoIn the US eggs are washed prior to being packaged for sale, so they must be refrigerated. Elsewhere (and in the US with yard eggs/local eggs) i guess you wash before use? I wash yard eggs because they were on the ground.
- MandieD 5y agoI rinse the ones that I see stuff on, but otherwise don’t worry about it. But I still refrigerate them immediately after getting them home even if I think I’m going to use them quickly, because some habits are impossible to break.
- Dma54rhs 5y agoI put them in the fridge because then I know where to always find them :)
- Foobar8568 5y agoUsually the warmest regions in France still get minus temperature during winter, I call bullshit on this.
