Nope, it’s not a viral joke. Keeping a roll of soft, absorbent, unused toilet paper in the fridge keeps food fresher by soaking up moisture and odors. Sure, you can use a box of baking soda, a cotton ball soaked in vanilla extract or a handful of crushed charcoal in a balled up sheet of newspaper (if you are retro and get a printed paper). But what fun is that when you can have a squeezable roll of Charmin becoming infused with the aroma of left-overs and then, after 3 weeks, transfer it to the bathroom. Who wouldn’t want their backside to smell like yesterday’s meatloaf?
Get that image out of your head next time you are served meatloaf! (LOL, I’m such a card. I’m a whole deck, I need to be dealt with! Ha-ha! I’ll be here all week folks. Don’t forget to tip your waitress!)
