Once you have bought your food, remove all external packaging made of paper/cardboard or other wrappers, which could introduce bacteria or dirt inside your refrigerator. Protect the food, (especially easily perishable items and those that have a strong smell), in order to avoid contact between them, thereby removing both the possibility of germ/bacteria contamination as well as the diffusion of strong odours inside the fridge. Store all food in such a way as to ensure air can circulate freely between different items. Keep the inside of your fridge clean, taking care not to use oxidiser or abrasive products.
