11. Chocolate-Hazelnut Spread

When kept in the fridge, this tasty spread solidifies and can't be spread on graham crackers, toast, or fruit.

The flavor of chocolate-hazelnut spread also diminishes when it's chilled. Unopened containers can be stored in the pantry for two months. Despite their sell-by date, open containers remain safe for about a month without refrigeration.

12. Apples

If you prefer cold apples, you can refrigerate them, but you don't have to. The crispness of these fruits is actually diminished by chilling them.

Apples make a lovely fruit display for a few weeks on a table or counter. Any that haven't been eaten can then be refrigerated to extend their shelf life.
