Pro tip: I learned more about my cooking from a stranger's comment on my fridge photo than from any cookbook.

I posted a picture of my fridge on here a while back, a real mess of half-empty jars and leftover containers. A user named 'Kitchen_Detective' replied and said, 'You're clearly a person who cooks with their hands, not with recipes. I see three types of mustard, a tub of lard, and a bag of dried chilies. You're making sauces from scratch and braising cheap cuts of meat on Sundays.' They were spot on. I never thought about it, but I do always have a pot of something simmering on the weekend, and I hate buying pre-made sauces. That one comment made me look at my own habits differently. It was a simple observation, but it stuck with me because it was so true. Has anyone else had a fridge clue that perfectly nailed their cooking style?

Totally, someone once called my fridge a "condiment graveyard" and they were RIGHT.

My fridge is just a sad museum of expired yogurt, so @finley777's condiment graveyard sounds way more fun.

@finley777's fridge would probably hate my perfectly organized spice drawer with nothing expired in it.
