Why ginger goes bad in the refrigerator
Most refrigerators are humid. That humidity can cause ginger to:
Mold grows faster
Become soft and mushy
Dry out and shrink
Loses its aroma and spiciness
Ginger is a root. It needs airflow and proper protection – not random exposure to moisture. When stored uncovered or poorly wrapped, it absorbs moisture, leading to rapid spoilage.
