  • I know from experience that certain things that say to refrigerate after opening will not go bad, as long as they are NEVER refrigerated. Mayonnaise is one, but I am not sure about pedialyte...
  • Hmmm... never heard this. I always put it in the fridge. I say to do what yhe package tells u to do. :)
  • I don't think that makes sense because if that was the case then you couldn't refrigerate Powerade and Gatorade?? :/
  • @bke913 thats exactly what I.said too! I def agree and @mommyof3girls I do tje exact same thing!! And im pretty sure when my son was in the hospital they made sure i refrigerated it ugh my sister in law can b such a hard head lol
