∙ 15y agoBacteria is everywhere unless your fridge is a sterilizer. Refrigeration only slows down the growth of bacteria. It does not stop them. Freezing will stop spoilage organisms and will slow down chemical spoilage - such as rancidity, but won't stop that either.

For example: Milk will spoil because pasteurization does not sterilize the milk. Eventually, the microbiological load will make the milk inedible.Foods can also contain enzymes which will break down the structure. The ripening of fruit is related to enzymes.
