Same here. My bf swears it’s bad for the bread but I’ve eaten refrigerated bread for a couple months with no issues. If I don’t refrigerate it, I’d have to throw out half the loaf

Refrigeration dehumidifies the air, so it will dry out the bread faster, but its otherwise perfectly fine.

your bf is correct, the molicules of the bread phisically and chemiclally change, at a faster rate at refrigetator temps, in a process known as going stale
