The best way is to turn the temperature down as low as you can get it
without freezing the lettuce. If a little ice forms on the surface of
the milk, but only when the milk is on the top shelf, that's about the
best you can do. At about 33 degrees, stuff will last a *long* time
before it eventually spoils.

Best regards,
