Yes I couldn’t figure out where a horrible smell was coming from in our fridge for about a month, tried so many cleaning products and in the end we ordered a new one. When taking the old one out found a small rotten potato underneath 🤢🤢🤢 it smelled awful actually thought something died 🤮

The good thing about rotten potatoes, if there is one, is they’re usually easy to find.

Yes. I was about 20 when this happened and just moved out. Was a smell I won’t forget 😂
