It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with he label: “store in the refrigerator.“2In my fridgeless fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came daily, the grocer, the butcher, the bake

16、r, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on, food deliveries have ceased, fresh vegetables are almost unobt

17、ainable in the country. 3The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation.
