How does refrigeration help to prevent food spoilage?
Food spoils the fastest between the temperatures of 40oF and 140oF, therefore foods in preparation should not be kept at these temperatures.

Mold also slows at lower temp. A refrigerator slows decay process because it slows the growth rate of spoilage organisms.
