Re: Freezing
They get mealy and lose flavor.
Garlic is another thing you're really just supposed to keep stored in a dark place not the fridge... but you mentioned it tastes good so I guess its not that bad to do that.
I put the garlic in the fridge because it lasts longer just like the tomatoes.
I do grocery weekly so I guess it wouldnt hurt leaving it out. I'll try it and see if it makes a difference.
