Health Tip: Prevent Food Contamination

By on December 11, 2017

Storing edibles in the refrigerator may help prevent food poisoning, but it doesn’t eliminate the possibility.

Foodsafety.gov suggests how to keep refrigerated foods safe:

  • Do not overpack your fridge. Cold air must be allowed to circulate to chill food properly.
  • Keep your fridge between 32 ˚F and 40 ˚F
  • Refrigerate or freeze perishable foods within two hours during winter, or within one hour during summer.
