THIS IS IN THERE ANYWAY

IN A MAN'S FRIDGE

I used to find it the most exciting to see the fridge in the MTV show Cribs. And there had to be a bottle of Cristal champagne in there, otherwise that person wasn't cool. I don't know if you've ever seen the fridge of Yolanda Foster Have you? She just divorced multimillionaire David Foster, so I'm afraid she has to leave her place, but she had a walk-in fridge. You just walked INTO the fridge. More like a cooler, like they have in a restaurant. It was really a dream for me, but on the other hand also really unnecessary.

Looking in a fridge is still the first thing I love to do when I visit someone. You can immediately see a bit about what kind of person it is. Does that person like to cook? Is healthy eating important? Is a lot cooked from packages? Is there always something tasty at home?

With men, it's even more of a party to peek inside. I'm mainly talking about single men, where no woman has influence on the contents of the fridge. I'll list a few things I always see lying around and food that always makes me sigh a bit.

– A bottle of transparent salad dressing with all kinds of colored bits swirling around that are supposed to represent vegetables. Aaargh, how hard is it to whip up your own dressing? So much tastier AND healthier.

– Eggs

– Pre-cut fruit in containers. You don't often see a nice bowl of fruit on the table. Seriously, peeling an apple takes one minute and eating it out of hand is no work at all. And... really, really, REALLY tastier.

– Everything pre-cut in general. So vegetables too.

– I've even come across those squeeze bottles with pureed fruit. “Yeah, for the vitamins.”

– Mustard sauce. You know, one of those squeeze bottles? Sauces in general. Lots of sauces.

– And it can also very well be that you come across something that isn't covered. So no foil or anything. Really annoying.

– Often more beer than food.

– Yogurt with a flavor. They don't like plain.
