Lowes carries a vinyl base board that fits flush with the wall, you no doubt have some under your kitchen cabinets. A little silicone caulk will stick it to the wall, nice and clean and gives a finished look. It cuts with a pair of scissors.

I have looked at what they have, as I'll probably just replace all of the kitchen wall base at some point... it looks like it was slapped on pretty haphazardly in places. If I take it off around the fridge alcove I'll have to remove everything on that side of the kitchen anyway, which fortunately isn't much. Whether I replace any in the alcove itself will depend on how things go after taking it out, if for some reason I need or decide to get a smaller fridge that will allow for it then I'll have to do it sooner rather than later. If I get a larger model it probably won't be worth putting any back there as the fridge would not allow it to be visible anyway... in which case I'll just paint down to the floor so it what you can see at least looks clean and not unfinished. The advantage there is that I can then pick out something at my leisure and do the whole kitchen at one time since I won't have to worry about going behind the fridge.
