My gluten-free diet relies heavily on whole foods - rices, fruites, veggies, nuts and other goodies which spoil really fast in the heat (especially Singapore). And when wonderful things like my fridge breaking right after buying a whole bunch of new food happens, I start to wonder if it might be a good idea to have a back up fridge.

I also recommend making sure your fridge works (and the food inside has not already spoiled) before cooking anything like brown rice. Otherwise, you might end up with a wonderful pot-o-mold (see picture). If you have a somewhat acceptable memory, you won't have to worry about forgetting the rice in the rice cooker... But then you wouldn't be me! You too can grow a community right here in your rice cooker.... Yippy.

Back to the point - If you are gluten-intollerant, celiac, vegan, or some other five-letter-word such that you rely heavily on refidgerated food, I highly recommed you buy a small backup fridge. You can keep it running stuffed full of food, or you can just use it as a very expensive bedroom nightstand until needed. But trust me, you don't want to turn out like me with a fidge stuffed full of food I can't eat and a rice cooker full of life...

Yet having said this. I am still not sure whether I can afford or have space for such a fridge. I think it is good to have one, but not sure if I can have one...yet...
