- Fridge organization 2020. Organize with me! Thoughts on food, ever since I started on TH-cam I've received requests to post what I eat in a day or cooking content. In this video I'm sharing why I don't make that kind of content.

I get so many questions about the things in my apartment and what I like and wear so I've collected links for many of them below.

I’m one of those people that leans towards cleaning instead of cooking. Nice to see you are too. 🤗
Yay, another one of me!🙌🏻
Me too!!
Yes, any day. I give my family the option to clean/do projects around the house or cook. If I have to cook, they have to do the house work. They always tell me to go ahead and work on my house projects. 😁
@@MaggieLoveMTC porque la cocina a es creativa y la base de la salud
@@jositamoon5310 The only thing I like to do in the kitchen is listening to music while I clean it.
In love with the recycling system.
If only all countries were like Sweden, the world would be much, much better place💚
The video super enjoyable as always😊💕
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Here in Germany, recycling is almost a religion.
@@PrincessofErised I wish I lived in Germany. I don't why, but I have always been into recycling.
Hi Benita, I appreciate your honesty. You're so genuine! And you really don't need to show us what you eat 😉
My family are big foodies and they never could understand why I simply eat to live. This relationship I have with food is almost a taboo to them as if it is an eating disorder. For me, its buying the same set of clothes because having a "uniform" means spending lesser time fussing on what to wear everyday. Same goes for food. I will eat what is available and most comforting or safest so I don't have to spend time fussing over what to eat. Its not a disorder or a "trend". Its just a lifestyle choice.
I love the idea of reusing the glass jars to uniformly organize your dressings, sauces, etc... so satisfying to watch you organize and the before and after process. Thank you always
Benita, when you’re feeling better please consider taking us for an autumn walk around Södermalm. I think you’ve mentioned before this is where you live in Stockholm. Love all your videos and I think I will clean my fridge this weekend.
A fall video is on my list! Just hope I’ll be able to fit it in!
Please, do! We would love to see the surroundings and your walk to work. I live in a place where walking to work seems weird so I would love to see how you do it on your rainy day. Best wishes from Oregon!
When I get stress I watch one of your video’s, and it calms me 😌
Very timely my new fridge arrives in a few weeks. Love organising.
Ooh, lucky you! A new appliance is always exciting!
Nothing like uniform jars to make a frig look neat and organized. Thank you for sharing.💗😊
Thank you for watching!
Are those ball jars??
Wong Shiyun no, they’re not. I got them in a local shop called Sostrene Grene.
@@BenitaLarsson thank u 💓
@@BenitaLarsson I've heard of for totally not kitchen related (was it stationary?) Anyway, wish we could have something similar here!
Nothing has vanished, it's transformed! 🦋
This makes me soooo happy. Thanks for bringing me some inspiration after a long work day.
Aww, thank you so much!
I have the same attitude about food and also have a sweet tooth like you. Sometimes a good glass of wine, bread and cheese are all I want. 😋
I am so glad I watched this. I feel the same way about food & I also have IBS. Many people do not understand and often ask if I have an eating disorder. It is refreshing to hear thoughts similar to mine being shared on TH-cam. Thank You for sharing!
Thank you for another lovely video Benita. I love the decanting of the condiments - I find they seem to take up so much space in my fridge!
Thank you so much for watching!
Great timing, I need to sort out my fridge so this will give me some inspiration
I’m happy you enjoyed it!
We’re all different which is what makes us interesting. I love cleaning and organizing, hate cooking. As a gluten free health food vegan I keep my fridge full of prepped fruit, vegees, beans, etc. I assemble them in a bowl, top with tahini, spices, etc and that’s my meal. Looove my Vitamix, can make a mean smoothie bowl.
Your matter of fact honesty is one of the many reasons I tune in to your channel. Loved the video this week. Something about watching a person use a P-Touch and get organized is so satisfying. In regards to food, when I was single I shopped for two weeks at a time and ate at my leisure. I am a vegetarian and my husband is not, so most times there are two separate meals on the table for dinner. This was one of the hardest things to compromise when I married. I admit some days I don't want to deal with meal prep or grocery shop (even on line).
Thank you so much for watching my videos!😊
This is a great video...very soothing to watch. I love your explanation about not liking to cook. 💕
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yay! New video! I totally feel the same about labels...so much visual noise actually. 👍🏻thank you for uploading!
Yay, thanks for watching again!
I completely agree with you, Benita--what one person feels best eating doesn't extend to anyone else and shouldn't. Still, thanks for sharing your refrigerator clean-out. What a great technique for removing jar labels! A bit of a soak, running water, dish gloves, a paring knife and so much better than what I've always done. Can't wait to try it. -Jane
Fabulous as always! 👍 You are my most favorite organizer! Looking forward to another great video.
Aww, thank you so much!
Thank you,Benita for sharing your experience with fridge organizing.I feel exactly the same when it comes to cooking.Im happy I found your channel.Its a pleasure watching your your videos.
I’m so glad you enjoy my videos!
Benita, Your videos are always something I look forward to watching! I'm lucky to have a husband and teenage son who have no problem eating leftovers, so I put aside time to cook every 4 or 5 days. A cup, or two, of tea and relaxing music to get me through. Recipes I've made a million times, so I'm on autopilot. Like cleaning and organizing, it gives me uninterupted time to think and let my mind wander.
Thank for the video! I really love cooking so we are different on this regards. However, I really enjoy your video and the organizing tips for the sauces bottles. Best!
I'm like you I don't really enjoy cooking and my husband does most of the cooking, mainly. I love watching your organising and your voice is really soothing. Really enjoy these shorts of your life. Keep them coming...
I am TOTALLY with you about food! I literally thought I was the only person like me in that regard...because everyone I know LOVES food or cooking or both! Food and its accoutrements ARE fun to organize, though... LOL
That they are, haha!
Hey Benita! I really liked watching this video, it was almost therapeutic. You have an impeccable sense of arranging and organisation
Thank you so much!
I absolutely loved your video regarding the visual clutter in your fridge! I have put all of my condiments in clear jars, as well as most other foods in clear glassware. It's unbelievable how serene it looks!!!!!! Thank you for pointing out this aspect of visual clutter!!!!!!!
I LOVE the minimalist jars! They look so good! I live in the Bay Area where a lot of us move every couple years due to rent increases so it's hard to buy organizational storage because it's just more stuff to move, but love the jars!
I love cooking but only if there are people to cook for, when it comes to me, meh, I'll just grab whatever. I also have IBS and several food sensitivities, so I totally hear you on the food choices. I've just started my massive life overhaul journey and was thinking about what fridge storage containers to use. I really like your simplified approach to the jars.
I love food but I do find that when I focus a lot on cleaning and organizing I just don’t have the energy to make great meals. You can’t do it all! You’ve inspired me to dig out my label maker! (Found your channel yesterday and have spent many hours watching since. Really enjoying it!)
Your refrigerator looks great, really like how you transferred products into your jars and bottles, looks great, love that! Good job, thanks for sharing,
Thank you so much for watching!
I totally agree with you about food! Thanks for your new video! ❤️
Thank you so much for watching it!😊
Thank you for this video!! My project today is to clean and minimize our refrigerator, which isn't easy since my hubby seems to have an addiction to BBQ and hot sauces. So as you can imagine, I have been dreading it and putting it off. Thanks to you, I found some inspiration!!
So excited to see a new video again. I cant believe how much alike we are. I have cooked for my family forever, now I am so over it. I could easily live of cheese, crackers, licorice, candy and other snack food. I have IBS as well, so don't like to eat out much anymore. Your fridge looks great, not so much clutter for the eyes. Thanks again Benita
Thank you so much for watching again!
I have to admit, I thought you were a bit crazy to do this, until I saw the result! The door looks so much nicer! Especially because we all know those condiment jars practically live in our fridge forever!!
Going to clean my fridge this weekend 😛 Thanks for sharing!
Watching this July 2021. I have ibs also and I agree with you about it all. My goal is just to eat more balanced meals. I have had a hard time getting rid of my upbringing regards to cooking full meals and eating out to celebrate an occasion. You have helped. Thank you.
I am not sure I would put used condiments into another container, but it does look pretty for a while. Loved the song behind it. Your home is always beautiful, and your thoughts always interesting and well thought out.
Having crohns disease, it was refreshing to hear someone with the same attitude to food!
Love your organisation!
Crohns here too
Love how you organize your fridge.
Beautiful and organized!! Love it!!
ÄLSKAR/LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! ❤️ Så underbart att du, som mig, är en person som äter för att få näring/inte vara hungrig, och inte är någon som älskar att laga maten oxå.
Såååå sällan någon säger det!! Har ofta känt mig som den enda kvinnan i världen som inte älskar att laga mat! Så TACK!! 🙏🏻
As for the end result in your fridge; 💪🏻🙌🏼👍🏻👌🏻
I agree with you, I don,t cook much either. Thanks for the video Benita 😍
Thank you so much for watching it!
Hi! You can also use a permanent marker to label your jars and it will wash off with soap and water. It's alot cheaper than labeling with a label maker. Just a tip:)
Yay! A Benita video!!.... I do Cook... But when I cook for my self I make really simple dishes with few ingrediens (often some of them raw) (nice to see Kalles 🏋️♀️)
Haha, yes Kalles is a staple in a Swedish kitchen, regardless if you cook or not 😀
Fantastic videos! I ❤ all of them, excellent content and excellent production and edition.
I’m so glad to meet another person who doesn’t like to cook as well 😋
Ooh, fellow non cook!🙌🏻
Monica Ho oh yeah.... I hate cooking. Simply don’t do it
I don't cook either!
I find your videos so relaxing ... thank you!
Aww, thank you so much!
So relaxing and motivating.
Totally wish I didn't have to cook! Not really my favorite thing, yet I have to feed my family! Love your videos
If you have a family you totally need to as did I!
I have IBS so I understand what you mean about some things I can’t eat that others can. It’s so annoying. I also don’t like to cook but like sweets and cheese too! Great video ☺️
Thank you! And yes, the differences in what we can and cannot eat are vast!
Great video-inspiring as always! Motivation for me to get busy! Thanks!
So glad you enjoyed it!
Hope you feel better soon and get over your scratchy throat. Thanks for posting the video. Always look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you so much, I’m better already!
Defenetly the best "smart and nice organisation" that I've ever seen 👍🙏
😉
I love your honesty. Most channels like this preach about what to eat and how to cook. I love that I’m the same as you! I’m not a foodie at all and do not like to cook.😂
It is important to be organized 🌻
Thanks for sharing
i totally agree with you about food and cooking
Non food lovers unite!
Exactly. I have a husband and adult son I cook for. Blah! I’d much rather eat a salad and piece of cheese (and organize a closet).
Me2
I am in your situation. Sometimes I am alone, what a relief! Just mushrooms and pasta with garlic and single cream. Or salad with egg and cheese and bit of ham.
We have very different food philosophies. Even so, I enjoyed this video and picked up some good inspiration on aesthetics and organization. Yes! to glass jars and clear labels. Thank you. ☺️
I’m so glad you still enjoyed it!
Very much- as always. ☺️
You are just what the doctor ordered! I always look forward to your next video! Feel better soon!
Thank you so much, I'm better already!
Thank you for your video and your scratchy voice is wonderful!
I totally get the food disinterest -- I get migraines with so much of what I eat. It's hard when you're in a hedonistic culture and food is worshiped, to have a less enthusiastic take on food. The music was pretty sad -- could be our theme song in the US. Always love your videos Benita -- you provide an interesting perspective, which I love.
leslie macdonald i used to suffer from incapacitating migraines that would last a week and sometimes longer. I’ve eliminated many, many foods from my diet and that’s really helped me, I’m happy to eat only a small variety of foods and feel good. But you are so right about the food worship, many people think I’m just being fussy and some are downright offended because I don’t want to try their cake or whatever. If I had a cent for every time someone said “oh come on, have some (insert food item) surely just one won’t hurt you” I would be a rich woman ☺️
@@SuperPuddingcat Thanks for the encouragement!
I have migraines too and try to eliminate sugar which helps me. I like my wine and always check the label to make sure it’s got less than 3 grams of sugar which also has helped!
@@BenitaLarsson Thank you, Benita -- I hope you find your optimum health!
Oh. Gosh, same here. Red wine, beer, chocolate, any many, many foods. I cook a variety of foods for my family, but sometimes I'll just have oatmeal loaded with fruit, or a sandwich. I'm told I'm a good cook--which is ironic as I really don't like tocook🙄
A woman after my own heart. Altho I don’t mind cooking I cannot eat dairy so totally understand. And as others have said, you tend to eat the same safe things over and over. I too love cleaning but no one seems to understand this as most people hate doing it. A refreshingly honest video. Thank you.
I love the clear storage bins that you used to organize! I hope that you feel better soon.
Thank you, I’m better already!
Benitta thoroughly enjoyed your vlog and tips. I don't like cooking either but I love eating when some one else cooks lol😁XX
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
So glad to hear that there's someone else in the world that doesn't find pleasure in cooking or eating. I struggle with losing weight though due to ordering food instead of cooking. I hate that I need to focus on my eating due to health issues.
So sorry you were asked this, while there are so many video's about cooking and fridges and in many styles. Some people type before they think!!! I like your style very much and learn from it!
Such a good music, thank you for a video!
I’m so happy you enjoy the music!
Yes a new video from you! Glad your safe! ♥️🌈♥️
I’m happy you enjoy my videos!
I love that Herdez Guacamole salsa. Yum.
Thanks for another lovely video Benita! I do cook, but, to be honest, my husband does most of the cooking when it comes to pulling lots of things together to make a meal. I make casseroles - put everything in the slow cooker etc and leave it. And like a viewer below, if I'm on my own, I enjoy making simple things for myself, like salads or stir fries (husband likes his meat!).
Lucky you to have a live in chef!
I really like the fact that I'm not the only one that isn't interested in food, people usually look at me in a weird when I say that, but you made me feel better with that video so thanks :)
Hi Benita ..I love your organising videos ..so calming to my soul! I am also fascinated by your completely ambivalent attitude towards food ....I wish with all my heart that I was the same because my passion for food is directly related to the size of my hips and butt 🙄. I adore food ..eating it , shopping for it and whenever I am on holiday I love trying new flavours and interesting spices . I couldn’t imagine just seeing food as something you have to deal with ...it must make your life so simple !
It does simplify things!😊
Love your video Thank you for inspiration 😊🧡
I've IBS (which are allergies and intolerances actually) too and lovelovelove food.
♡
I totally agree with your eating habits. "Eat or die" ha ha I like that ! Even though I cook every day for my child I can imagine to live without cooking and just relax and eat very simple. One day maybe...
Stages in life, totally!
Fascinating! Thanks for sharing! 💖
Thanks so much for watching again!
I feel the same way about food Benita; my husband lives to eat, I eat to live. Fortunately I don’t have any dietary complications other than high cholesterol - trying to maintain a low fat diet has all but taken the love out of eating for me. I eat vegetarian and have tried vegan for a time but can’t sustain it. Expensive restaurant meals are lost on me too. I like good quality, whole food but get no particular joy or buzz from preparing and cooking a meal. My husband is the opposite, loves to cook and is a good cook but if he weren’t here I’d probably live on steel cut oats!
Love your unapologetic honesty. Keep up the great work. Be well.
I also like to decant foods when I can into jars for storage, and I have a marker that I think is called a “grease pen” that I use to note the date on the jar. It wipes off easily with water when the jar is empty and ready to refill with something else. It helps me keep track of some of those sauces and things that I don’t use often.
i feel the same as you about cooking--i have 5 grow children so i cooked and taught them to eat healthy and responsibly----but i want to eat well but not much trouble--i also have gerd and IBS thank you----i would like to hear about your food when you do put this in your videos---thank you. take care--you have helped me----deatra
youre Icon Benita!
👍🏻👍🏻 for saying aloud that food consumption is overrated. I’m signing under everything you said, even with the scratchy voice ;)
The recycling system in your country is amazing! Here in USA we talk about global warming but we’re far away from saving the planet.
Great fridge, great kitchen, great flat! I hope you’re happy where you’re. When I’ll be finally on my own I wanna have a place like yours. You inspire me.
Love your videos and wait for them to calm me down.
I hope you’ll feel better soon. Best wishes from Oregon!
Thank you so much, I’m better already!
How in the world did I miss this video!! No wonder I was starting to have withdrawal symptoms!! 😜 Again I can relate on your lifestyle. I eat to live as well & I don’t really love food!! I love salads & sweets are on my daily menu!! Also there are many things my stomach can’t tolerate so I have to be careful... I don’t cook much unless it’s a big pot of homemade soups or salads... I want my fridge to look like yours!! Love it!! Take care friend.. ❤️
I love to eat, I really enjoy food in that way, but cooking is the bane of my life and I really couldn’t care less what other’s eat. I think a lot of the obsession as it manifests on the Internet is aspirational - people, probably unconsciously, want to emulate everything ‘insert influencer’s name here’ does in the hope that they might achieve what they see as a ‘perfect life’. I think many humans have always done this in some way or another- imitation is how we learn from our parents initially, we are taught to obey certain rules and customs etc. I think it’s just a continuation of that. Okay I’ll stop waffling now! I love your nice calm looking organised fridge and I hope the throat is better soon.
As an IBS sufferer myself, I completely understand the lack of interest in food. As I have had this most of my life, I have learned what triggers it and what to avoid. Small meals are key for me! Also eating out every day is not very healthy and expensive so I try to cook meals that I know I can enjoy. Just a few tips! Your fridge looks nice and organized. Enjoy your videos, and 😊
I also eat small meals, I agree it works best!
thank you for your videos. i too have ibs, and i feel like i hadn’t related to someone about the connection between food and minimalism as much haha
Thank you so much for watching!
I organize my fridge that way too. I don't care for cooking either. But I must feed my family. I keep it simple, we eat whole foods and as much unprocessed food as possible. If I could just eat salads all the time I would. Thanks for another wonderful video. I hope you feel better soon ☺
Having a family changes things for sure! And thanks, feeling better already,
what I need now! Thank you!
Thank you so much for watching!😊
Your fridge looks great! (And this reminds me it's time for a deep clean.) I understand how IBS could take away your enjoyment of food, particularly when so many of the problem foods are those that add so much flavour (onions, garlic, mushrooms etc).
Thank you so much!
You probably have a much healthier relationship to food than a lot of people, myself included, as you see it as a necessity of life. Like a lot of people I know, I often think about food too much, both in terms of health and consequences on my looks, which is terrible thinking, and in terms of daily maintenance; what are we going to buy? What are we going to cook? And most of the time, because I can't be bothered cooking, cleaning up and tidying up afterwards, I end up not eating well anyway, which is ironic given the amount of thought I put towards it! I love your fridge organisation. My partner refuses me to organise it, cause he likes the chaos! Good thing he's the one who does most of the cooking...
I'm so glad to see a TH-camr who is not a foodie! lol. I appreciate food and it's life-giving nourishment BUT it's a love-hate relationship cooking it. Especially since both our boys have different appetite from us adults. I could go on but those clear bottles & labelling are my kind of 'food porn'.
My kind of fridge!! Beer, wine, avocado and condiments!! Bit of rice and your set!!
Thanks for sharing, was waiting for your video :)
Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful! You are teacher.
" Food it's overrated in my book" . I'm with you ! Nice & honest video as always. Merci Benita.Greetings from Montreal 🇨🇦 !
Great idea 😊👍.
Loved it. I see me in you. I do the same as you do in changing these bottles.
Makes such a different and it's enjoyable :)
@@BenitaLarsson I too feel happy when I see those arrangements.
i can agree with you, i really don't care for food but i love snacks (a bit too much haha) i don't mind cooking as much but hate the mess and cleaning after! i enjoyed this video and you reminded me how many years I've wanted a label maker and not gotten one... its time haha
Oh yeah, a label maker is fun!
So clean and fresh looking 👍🏻. If I can use one pan for cooking great, but when it comes to 3 pans I loose interest. Get well soon Benita 💕x.
I love the one pan!
