i dont think many had it, i think it was expensive and had to be brought from a cold place...
i think most people just used root cellars and things like refrigeration.
like milk had to be freshly delivered ect...
did things stay fresh?? i wonder??
Quoting: dofzionwell im sure there was a lot more drying and curing of meats ect. ive heard of a way to make a makeshift fridggeyou get like 2 buckets one that fits in the other and put the small one in the big one and fill the space between the buckets with like sand or dirt but sandier is better i think, then puor water in that sand and cover the buckets the inside bucket is where it should stay cooler, this would also surely work better if you had a hole to put the whole contraption in. see the when water evaporates from the sand it has a cooling effect. probably not super cold but its better than nothing
