I don't know what the big deal is. It's not uncommon for a few items to take up residence in one's refrigerator for a spell.

I don't drink beer, but I did buy some for the other guys when I had my 'open house' party when I moved in. Just the other day I threw out those cans that had been left undrunk. The cans, being sealed and in the refrigerator, I wasn't sure what the shelf life would be so I erred on the side of longer rather than shorter.
