Depends on the layout of the fridge. When something like that happens to me (would have to be an old fridge as all the current ones here have solid shelves) I find pouring a little baking soda over what I can of the spill itself, wait a few hours for it to absorb any liquid and then with a paper towel or two at the bottom, chase the spill with a bit of warm water. Most of the time this works for me. When it doesn't, I repeat it again and that usually fixes the issue.

So if that's the case, I'd invest in some larger "deep plates". I sometimes use them if whatever I'm thawing has liquids that might leak out, It's rarely fish, but you'd be surprised how much blood some meats still have.

agreed. That's how this all started. It is a discussion about forgetting to put a dish/tray under a plastic bag when thawing.

I usually remember to at least put a paper towel under any protein Im thawing in the fridge. And if I dont, I get spoken to.
