Food products that do not need refrigeration
Flour (Flour being stored in large cloth sacks.)
Rice
Sugar
Cooking oil
Condensed milk
Powdered milk
Potatoes: The cold temperatures in your fridge will actually turn potatoes' starch into sugars, giving it a sweet flavor when you cook them (and not in a good way). These can be stored at room temperature.

Tomatoes: If you've tried this, you probably know why Tomatoes shouldn't be stored in the fridge. They get really mushy and gross. Leave them out.

Honey: A lot of people put honey in the fridge, but this will thicken it up something fierce, and it doesn't require refrigeration to stay good. Unless you really like your honey cold, you can put this in the pantry.

Onions: Onions will last longer in the fridge, but not without cost. Like tomatoes, your onions will soften a bit if you put them in the fridge, and they won't be quite as crisp. Also, they'll make your other food smell like onions. Keep them out of the fridge at room temperature, and away from your potatoes—close proximity can make the onions go bad quicker!

Foods You Can Refrigerate, but Don't Need To
Peanut Butter: Sure, you could...but why? Apart from some organic varieties, you can keep peanut butter in the pantry and it'll be fine. Not to mention it'll be easier to spread.

Bread: We've actually talked about this before: If you leave bread in the fridge, it'll start to get a tougher texture, which isn't always desirable. That said, you can store it in the fridge if you can't eat it fast enough before it goes bad—I'd much prefer my bread a tad rougher than have to throw half of it out.

Bananas: Most people store these outside of the fridge, which is fine. If you put them in the fridge, they'll turn black, but the insides will still be fine.

Baked Goods: Like bread, chilling baked goods will make them last longer, but at a small cost: they'll go stale faster. Unless they contain some sort of filling that requires refrigeration (like custard), you don't have to put them in the fridge. My recommendation: leave them out and eat them fast!

Condiments, Jams, and Salad Dressings: Basically anything that says "refrigerate after opening" on the bottle. You can store these in the pantry before you open them (yes, even mayonnaise), but once you open them, stick them in the fridge. The aforementioned maple syrup would fall into this category.

Fruits and Vegetables

While most fruits and vegetables can and should be stored in the fridge, it's a bit more complicated than that. Not only do they have a handy table of what you should and shouldn't store in the refrigerator, but they highlight how you should store them and which fruits should be kept away from others due to Ethylene—the gas that causes other fruits to over-ripen.
