Fresh Food Storage Information

„„ The fresh food compartment of a refrigerator should be kept between 34°-40°F (1°-4°C) with an optimum temperature of 37°F (3°C).

„„ Avoid overcrowding the refrigerator shelves. This reduces the circulation of air around the food and results in uneven cooling.

Fruits and Vegetables

„„ Storage in the crisper drawers traps humidity to help preserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer time periods.

„„ Sort fruits and vegetables before storage and use bruised or soft items first. Discard those showing signs of decay.

„„ Always wrap odorous foods such as onions and cabbage so the odor does not transfer to other foods.

„„ While vegetables need a certain amount of humidity to remain fresh, too much humidity can shorten storage times (especially leafy vegetables). Drain vegetables well before storing.

„„ Wait to wash fresh produce until right before use.

Meat and Cheese

„„ Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage and contamination of other foods or surfaces does not occur.

„„ Occasionally mold will develop on the surface of hard cheeses (Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan). In the interest of safety, discard cheese that is moldy.

Dairy Food

„„ Most dairy foods such as milk, yogurt, sour cream and cottage cheese have freshness dates on their cartons for appropriate length of storage. Store these foods in the original carton and refrigerate immediately after purchasing and after each use.
