If I had to guess, it’s because the back/top of the fridge is more prone to freezing.
This is it. The door is warmer than the back and the mayo will separate if frozen
And depending on your refrigerator’s settings and insulation, the door compartments may be cold enough for more stable things but not for things like milk. Too me a bit to figure out having the milk in the door was both convenient and cutting its lifetime down a lot. Only takes a few degrees, plus the large door shelf is usually higher up, where the warmer air is.
That’s annoying - it’s the only place my milk fits. And my shelves aren’t adjustable enough to change that unless I remove a shelf
You can lay it on its side
No you can’t.
Canada was a mistake.
Le Canada était une erreur.
As a Canadian, I have never seen a bag of milk “sealed” with a rubber band. Plus, standard bags are way bigger than these. Those bags are not Canadian.
En tant que Canadien, je n’ai jamais vu de sacs de lait “scellés” avec des élastiques. De plus, les sacs réguliers sont beaucoup plus grand que ceux-ci. Ces sacs ne sont pas Canadiens.

This also helps prevent the cork from drying out
Ahh a connoisseur I see.
I’ve had enough milk leaks to know not to do that. The stink is unreal.
No, really not. While I haven’t had catastrophic leaks and it doesn’t leak every time, I’ve spent way more time than I like cleaning out the fridge from milk left on its side
Some may find it fun to nerd out, get a Bluetooth temp sensor, track a handful of places in fridge & freezer to figure it out 🙂
Also good for ongoing alerts of temp escalations (beyond the usual, since refrigerators make themselves really cold until they warm up a bit and make themselves cold again).
Also easier/more convenient to locate.
Oh interesting, I assumed it’s so you remember its there and eat it faster so you buy more 😅
both can be true
What kind of low tech refrigerator has that kind of uneven temperature distribution?
Surely one without the ability to display advertisements
Samsung
Can confirm, mine does this lol. It’s 9nly a slight freeze and I use it as an advantage to keep things prone to expiring quicker near that area to prolong its life a bit.
Our brand new GE fridge is like this. The temperature is set to 41F and it still causes some things to freeze on the shelves.
Hm. My refrigerator I bought 18 years ago from a no name brand has a fan that moves air internally when the door is closed.
Honestly all can do this based upon where the colder air enters which in most cases is the top and back of the fridge. Be it when cost is not a factor cold spots can be reduced but there will always be cold spots. Being in the door means that it will be less likely to freeze and if freezing does occur, being in the door will be the first to thaw or warm.
So you see it more often and use more.
The door is the warmest part of the fridge and I would guess this has something to do with the temperature of an average fridge being a bit too cold and producing a less favorable texture so the manufacturer wants you to have the best experience and tells you to put it on the door. Either that or something else probably related to you enjoying it more or using it more.
I 100% thought this was vaseline at first before reading the whole title. lol
