There should be a fridge or a fridge like item were you can stack food up to 16. And if/when more food comes out there could be individual spots for certain foods such as apples and possibly grapes go in the fruit section and pork and fish go in meat/poultry section.
To me the idea sounds rather unnecessary. I like the idea of food being able to stack when in storage, but just that alone has issues, like if you break the container, oh look tons of food that completely fills up your inventory. Yay! Now you have to get rid of it one by one. A container specifically for food sounds excessive. Then adding in sections for types of food within it just seems ridiculous to me. That I will not support. A container specifically for food. Ehh.. still leaning away from it. Stacked food... as long as its not in your inventory... maybe. I am neutral on that one.
