No. Transfer into a glass or ceramic container,especially if the food contains acid(tomatoes, etc) before you put in the frig.

FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE THAT DRINK STRAIGHT FROM THE CAN.
This incident happened recently in Belgium.
A woman went boating one Sunday, taking with her some cans of coke which she put in the refrigerator of the boat. On Monday she was taken into ICU and on Wednesday she died.
The autopsy revealed a certain Leptospirosis caused by the can of coke from which she had drunk straight out of, not using a glass. A test showed that the can was infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis. Rat urine contains toxic and deathly substances. It is highly recommended to wash thoroughly the upper part of soda cans before drinking out of them as they have been stocked in warehouses and transported straight to the shops without with being cleaned.
A study in Spain showed that the tops of soda cans are more contaminated then public toilets i.e full of germs and bacteria. So to wash them with water is advised before putting it to the mouth to avoid any kind of fatal accident.
also aluminium can affect the taste of these sorts of food, especially if they are stored in aluminium containers for a long time.

~*~Some foods may be stored in the can in the refrigerator and partly used cans should be covered with plastic. However, there are some preserved foods which do not store well in cans. Highly acid or salted foods such as fruit juices or tomato products do attack tinplate in the presence of air and they should be transferred to a glass or plastic container before refrigerating.

yes. But it has to be covered airtight and only keep it in there for a couple of days at the most. If it contains meat product make sure you heat it above boiling temp before consuming.

Yes, of course it is, for at least a few days. Maybe more (higher salt and/or acidity).

Sure you can put open cans in the fridge, however, once can is opened, it will lose its fizz. mermaid199
