• How to Store Food in a Side by Side Refrigerator

    Learning how to store food in your side-by-side refrigerator will make your cooking time easier and more enjoyable. Storing and organizing your food correctly and efficiently will keep the products you use daily within easy reach (just like your favourite snacks), it will keep the foods you're storing for the long term fresh and in good condition and it will help you avoid spills that always happen at the worst time.

    LG recognizes your need for convenience and comfort, so it offers you a wide range of side by side refrigerators. If you already have one at home, read below to discover how to properly store food in a side-by-side refrigerator so you utilize its capacity and unique features.

  • Tips on Storing Food in Side by Side Refrigerators

    Follow the below tips to store food in your side by side refrigerator in the best way possible:

  • 1. Declutter

    This may be unexpected, but storing your food should start with getting rid of the items you do not need to be in your refrigerator in the first place. Think of an expired mayonnaise jar, leftovers that have remained untouched for too long, or cooking materials such as food colourings that you won't use in the next 6 months, even though you keep telling yourself otherwise. All of those is a wasted space that would make your life easier if used properly.

  • 2. Organize Into Groups

    Organizing your food into groups will help you stick to the designated spaces within your refrigerator for each group, and it will help you make zones for the groups that do not have designated areas.

    The following food groups will help you organize your food:

    ● Fruits and vegetables.
    ● Dairy products.
    ● Eggs.
    ● Chicken, meat and fish.
    ● Anything bottled: Milk, juices, water and soda.
    ● Sauces and dressings.
    ● Snacks.
    ● Leftovers.

  • 3. Placing Foods

    Now, the actual storing and organizing.

    Half of the work is already done for you if you own one of LG's side-by-side refrigerators. These refrigerators are designed with your needs and cravings in mind, which is especially evident with the Mega Capacity Side-by-Side Refrigerator from LG.

    How so?

    When organizing your foods in this refrigerator, you will place them in the following spaces:

    The Door-in-Door:

    Just as the name suggests, this door is indeed within another door, and it is ideal for storing your juice bottles, snacks, and anything else that you use more frequently and want to access super easily and quickly.

    The snacks make this refrigerator space the best and the yummiest, similar to the cupboard filled with snacks.

    ● Space Behind the Side by Side Doors:

    When opening the side by side doors, you will be welcomed with lots of space - 600 litres of capacity, to be exact.

    There, you will find many shelves and separate spaces.


    The top shelves are for cooked foods and foods that don't need cooking, including cooked meats, leftovers, desserts and packaged foods.

    The middle shelves are for dairy products and eggs. Do not place the eggs and milk in the door space, as it is the warmest space of the refrigerator (more on this later).

    LG's Mega Capacity side-by-side refrigerator has bottom drawers on the right side for your fruits and vegetables and bottom shelves on the left side for uncooked meat. These foods go in the bottom spaces because they are the coldest ones.

    Also, different types of meat will stay in good condition; they won't leak on any of your other foods since they are in the bottom space below everything else.

    Speaking of the door space, you should reserve it for foods that do not require very low temperatures to stay in good condition, such as fizzy drinks, salad dressings, opened jams, mustards, ketchup and other condiments. Don't forget that those have an expiration date, so you have to revisit tip number 1!

    Water Tank

    The Mega Capacity Side-by-Side Refrigerator from LG offers you an easy in-and-out water tank. Its lid has an intelligent design so that you can easily pour water.

    The container box has a generous 4-litre capacity to save you from filling the tank more often for refreshing comfort. And if you are worried about the water dispense nozzle being clean or how to clean it, don’t worry! LG has UVnano technology on the water dispense which automatically cleans your water dispenser nozzle regularly.
