Our new fridge freezer has been delivered today. It has a drawer in the fridge marked 'MoistZone '
Not a popular word on Gransnet smile

I don't mind moist and I'd be interested to know if it works.

I like Moist, he's a good, reformed minor criminal in charge of modernising the Ank Morpork post office. grin
He has absolutely nothing to do with fridge freezers.

Why not just call it a salad/veg drawer? Mine also has a 0 degree drawer, which does just what it says on the tin, keeps anything in the drawer at a slightly lower temperature of 0 degrees.
