When it’s unopened, there is no excess moisture to react with. Once it’s been opened, there is new air and moisture to deal with. You can actually leave your parmesan cheese out for some time. You just have to keep an eye for mold and growth. The fridge delays that significantly. Many products don’t necessarily need to be refrigerated, it’s just safer if they are.
