I was convinced my sourdough starter was fine in the fridge for a month, then a baker from Boise told me I was basically making zombie bread.

Zombie bread? That's a new one. I've left my starter in the fridge for six weeks before and it came back fine after a couple of feeds. What exactly is a baker from Boise doing to his starter that makes a month in the fridge some kind of horror show? Sounds like he's overcomplicating things.

Read somewhere that the hooch can get pretty funky if you don't stir it back in before a long fridge nap. Maybe that's the zombie part?
