I have worked on some RFID projects (several years ago) just before it was touted as the next thing. It has some uses but not the one solves all it was billed as. Before the fridge could work with RFID a system for the would have to be universally agreed (mind TI have got quite far with 13.56MHz for Gas n' Go in Canada) so saying it was 13.56 then the packaging would have to changed to allow reliable reads for each item (from experience glass bottles good ,plastic not so good, the power has to ramped up) I would give it another 20+ years before it becomes practical.
