Default Fridge keeps tripping my GFCI plug

I have an old home with ungrounded sockets. I hooked up my fridge to a
portable GFCI plug, and in the last 3 months, the fridge has tripped
the circuit. Both times, the fridge works fine when I reset it...so
I'm assuming the fridge is OK. What else would cause the fridge to
trip the plug?


A refrigerator/freezer should NOT be plugged into a GFCI outlet!!!!!!!!
