From Charles:

"I can't imagine anything less exciting than the contents of my refrigerator. I rarely take leftovers home because I don't own a microwave and the only leftovers I like cold are pizza and fried chicken. But I do buy deli food from Cosentino's Brookside Market (that's their pesto chicken salad on the top shelf.)

I don't drink milk, but I do cook and bake with it. The mysterious brown glop in the glass bowl on the bottom shelf is two chicken breasts marinating in a fabulous soy-based marinade created by Brookside Market chef Paul Oliveraz."

My own thoughts on the Ferruzza Fridge:

The placement of the fruit is very democratic with lemons on the top shelf, blueberries on the middle shelf and apples on the bottom shelf.

The location of the flour tortillas on the right-hand side of the bottom shelf is eerily similar to where the flour tortillas were in the fridge featured yesterday. Is there some subconscious reason that makes people store their tortillas there?

The most interesting thing about the fridge is what is not in it: barbecue sauce. While there are the random jars that every refrigerator accumulates over time, not one of them is Gates, Haywards, Zarda's or any of the other sauces Kansas City is famous for.

If you feel, like I do (and unlike my colleague does) that the contents of peoples' refrigerators are doors to their souls, pitchforks@pitch.com send us yours and we'll post them next week.

Hi We'll Show You Ours...The Ferruzza Fridge.The most interesting thing about the fridge is what is not in it: barbecue sauce.I can't make meatloaf without a cup of Gates barbecue sauce. There's also, unfortunately not visible, hot sauce, a bottle of Hollyhock Hill salad dressing.

Oh, there IS barbecue sauce in the fridge, Owen. It's in one of the shelves in the door. I can't make meatloaf without a cup of Gates barbecue sauce. There's also, unfortunately not visible, hot sauce, a bottle of Hollyhock Hill salad dressing (from a revered fried chicken joint in Indianapolis)that I have yet to put on a salad, and two bottles of sparkling apple cider that have been there so long, they have probably turned into vinegar.
