The History Of Refrigerators

The Importance of Storing Food Correctly

You can prevent bacteria and other microbes from infesting your food by storing your food the right way.

However, when food is stored incorrectly, it invites bacteria to grow and produce enzymes that make it spoil faster. An efficient way to preserve your food and protect it from germs and bacteria is by avoiding storing it in high-temperature environments, dirty areas, and humid compartments.

1. It has an undesirable taste. 2. There is a change in texture and/or color. 3. It has an unpleasant smell.

It is crucial for every household to prioritize food storage. Improperly stored meals pose a risk to health as they can cause food poisoning and chemical contamination. Unlike when they are stored properly, the food's quality and flavor remain good without the risk of coming into contact with any harmful bacteria.

Brief History of Refrigerators

After understanding the significance of storing food in refrigerators, you might be curious about how people preserved and cooled their food before the invention of refrigerators.

Let's take a brief look at the history of refrigerators.

Yes, you read that correctly.

In ancient times, people utilized natural cooling methods to preserve their food. They stored their food using cooling techniques that depended on the environment and were readily available to them.

For instance, they would store food directly in lakes and rivers, while in other regions and for different types of food, individuals would dig holes and wells in the ground for preservation purposes.

The first illustration of the evaporative cooling method for refrigeration was done by the Scottish professor William Cullen; however, it was never put into practice. In the early 1800s, inventor Jacob Perkins developed a vapor compression system, and in the late 1800s, professor Carl von Linde licensed the process of liquefying gas.

In the early 1900s, the first home electric refrigerator was invented. It consisted of an icebox with a refrigeration unit to sustain a cool temperature.

Shortly after that, the first home refrigerator was introduced, marking the beginning of mass production for household refrigerators in urban areas. Since then, refrigerators have been regarded as an essential luxury due to the decrease in fresh food supply and the growing demands of city life.

What’s even more interesting is that freezer compartments weren’t incorporated into the fridge until the mid-1900s and the water dispenser feature didn't emerge until the 1980s.
