Chill Facts /Cold Storage Chart
Gentle Members trying to keep tabs on what's in the freezer and how long
that frozen chicken can be stored may be heartened by today's website. The
U.S. Food Safety division in conjunction with their National Food Safety
education program presents straightforward information in dealing with food
storage and freezing.
Since these webpages are part of a much larger site, the List is suggesting
two specific, single webpages. The first, "Chill Facts", covers the
essential facts for defrosting frozen foods, to avoid the danger of
bacteria growth, as well as dealing with the time frame and temperature
constraints of serving chilled, perishable foods.
Slide over to the "Chill Facts" page for a convenient guide on food safety
at:
http://www.foodsafety.gov/~fsg/f01chill.html
The second webpage, the "Cold Storage Chart", contains a table with an
extensive list of basic food products, the number of days they can be
stored in the refrigerator and how long they can be kept safely in the
freezer. This second page is certainly worth bookmarking as a handy
reference.
Nip along to the "Cold Storage Chart" to see if that frozen pizza is really
safe to eat at:
