This is a real thing I do. It feels weird if the weight of the carton isn’t evenly balanced when I take it from the fridge.

    it’s just sensible. if you take from one end, you run the risk of unexpectedly grabbing the ‘light end’ and accidentally dropping the partial carton on the floor next time you take it out of the fridge.

      Bam. Right here. It’s all about that weight distribution, simple as. First time I grabbed a carton by the light end, my stomach dropped. Not having that, no way.

      So always put the heavy (short, not long) end facing the door, so you always grab the heavy end, and never have this problem.
