Cleaning a fridge (sodium bicarbonate)
 
Years ago I was told that baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) should be
used to clean a fridge, rather than detergent. Is there any basis for
this and for what reason?

Detergent generally has scent added - not a good idea around food. Also
baking soda is very slightly abrasive, and cleans crud off without
damaging the lining of the fridge.

Yes, it avoids introducing any smells.

See above.

I put the shelves in the dishwasher and used
detergent on the stuff that isnt removable.

My fridge handbook said to ujust use diluted washing up liquid , soI imagine
it is based on looking after the plastic and not getting loads of water
where it should not be.
