    Peanutbutter no, but store upside down so oil does not separate.

    I didn't know people refrigerated syrup... but yes, I refrigerate my ketchup. I use to not, but it started turning a brownish color which grossed me out, so now I prefer it cold

    Mom and Grandma always refridgerated syrup. I guess to keep it from attracting ants.

    ketchup yes, syrup no

    Great - now I have cravings for both of those. How can I fit those both into the same meal?

    **I am pregnant, so don't worry too much about it!

    Ketchup, syrup and PB all go in the fridge. I'm paranoid about foods.

    I warm the syrup up in a cup before using. And sit the PB on the counter to soften up before using.

    if you're buying real maple syrup, it's best to store it in your refrigerated safe!

    Ketchup - Yes, because it says to refrigerate after opening.

    Syrup - I need clarification, Is it real maple syrup? If so, then yes, because it will get mold on it. If it's the "Log Cabin" or "Aunt Jemima" or "Mrs. Butterbottoms", then there's probably no need - {insert sarcasm font} cuz, you know, it's not real food.

    And peanut butter...GTFO.

    Better listen to him . He's in pre-med.

    As for the PB, I fridge it if it's the natural stuff that says to.

    :huh: I use real maple syrup. I've never had it mold and it generally takes me a couple of years to go through a container. It just crystallizes.

    what about peanut butter?

    depends on if it's "natural"...the peanut butter I buy tells you to refrigerate after opening as it really doesn't have much in the way of preservatives...pretty much just peanuts and oil. Your packaging should tell you if it's necessary. If it's the regular old Jiff or Peter Pan or whatever, then no.

    and growing up we always kept our pb in the fridge. i have this feeling my mom kept things in the fridge, especially syrup and honey, to avoid ants? or maybe its a weird immigrant thing.

    i don't keep mine in there now but i use pb2 anyway.

    i can't stand to see an open bottle of syrup or ketchup in a cupboard. it seems so unsanitary!
    in fact there are not many condiments i dont refrigerate. i refrigerate:
    bbq sauce
    soy sauce
    vinegar
    lemon juice
    jelly
    mustard
    honey
    syrup
    ketchup
    peanut butter

    cold peanut butter isnt the best for spreading on bread but the cold version is so delicious for eating by the spoonful
