Default Who keeps toothpaste in the fridge?

The notice on my toothpaste tube says "store below 25C". I suppose I should
have kept it in the fridge last month - along with those medicines having
the same instruction. Must be tricky for families with young children.
Perhaps they have a small fridge with a padlock on it specifically for
medicines.

Surely your house must be below 25C in the bathroom?

Will.

Same here. All rooms were between 25C and 30C for the whole of the month.

Toothpaste is glycerine, a mild abrasive, probably talc, and a
trace of flavouring. These are all stable indefinitely at well over
100°C It's probably some loony Euro-regulation with the sole effect
of making people worry unnecessarily. You could even store it in the
oven though it would be it bit runny until it had cooled down.

Brrrrr. Early morning in the middle of winter maybe... it's like that
in the in the tropics.

We even keep our rubber bands in the fridge. Not the toothpaste
though -- it'd only make 'em chatter.

Sheesh how do you sleep/cope ???
It's rare for my house in summer to get above 20C, I'm so lucky I guess.
