Me too. In a cool dark place, the only one of those that I have is a lower kitchen cabinet, where there is not enough air circulation for the potatoes. And you can't store potatoes and onions in the same spot as the onions cause the patatoes to sprout eyes. Got tired of throwing out rotting potatoes & onions, so into the fridge they go.
