Where the hell do you live where your environment will dry it out more than a fridge?!?
Midwest here, so that’s just not even a possibility haha.
Also yes, people did just simply die before refrigeration, or they used salt, holes on the ground, or any other way to keep certain foods cold and safe to eat.
Due to the way relative humidity works, most environments where the inside of the fridge is cooler than the outside should work like that. Cooler air has a lower water capacity than warmer air and all the air in your fridge came from outside of your fridge.
If humidity is very low, then temperature won’t make as much of a difference and you might see similar drying inside and out, at least as far as relative humidity is concerned. But with more light and higher temps outside the fridge, I’d still guess you’d see more drying outside the fridge.
Maybe it seems the other way because you allow food to sit longer inside the fridge than outside? Or, if you experience high humidity and fluctuating temperatures, maybe you see more condensation outside of the fridge?
