Food Storage Information

Fresh Food

•When storing fresh food, which is not prepackaged, be sure to wrap or store food in airtight and moisture proof material unless otherwise noted. This will ensure proper shelf life and prevent the transfer of odors and tastes.

•Wipe containers before storing to avoid needless spills.

•Eggs should be stored in an upright position in their original carton to maximize shelf life.

•Fruit should be washed and dried then stored in a crisper set for low humidity. If you do not have humidity controlled crispers place the items in sealed plastic bags before storing in the crisper.

•Vegetables with skins should be stored in plastic bags or containers and stored in crisper with low humidity setting.

•Leafy vegetables should be washed and drained and then stored in plastic bags or containers in crisper with high humidity setting.

•Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the refrigeration. This will prevent unnecessary energy use.

•Fresh seafood should be used the same day as purchased.

•When storing meats in the fresh food section, keep in the original packaging or rewrap as necessary. Follow the suggestions below for safe storage:

• Chicken	1-2 Days
• Ground Beef	1-2 Days
• Cold Cuts	3-5 Days
• Steaks/Roasts	3-5 Days
• Smoked/Cured Meats	7-10 Days
