General Food tips

1. Stock up on plastic wrap, re-sealable plastic bags and storage containers to make packing away leftovers easy.
2. Always keep food safety in mind. Refrigerate (below 40 degrees F) or freeze (below 0 degrees F) leftovers promptly in shallow containers.
3. Don't keep leftovers for longer than three to four days in the refrigerator and three to six months in freezer.
4. Always label and date leftovers.
5. Leave space between storage containers or bags in fridge or freezer so cool air can circulate around them.
