Frozen Food Safety: How long is food in the freezer safe to eat?
This is one question I ask myself often. I chuck a lot of things in the freezer, but honestly, I end up throwing away a lot of food. I am a stickler for expiration dates, and I just kind of get grossed out by foods that aren’t “newer”.
I hope the infographic below will help you determine how long certain foods are safe in the freezer.
What I really need to do, I suppose, is get more organized and start using freezer labels.
I also wanted to pass along this helpful guide on storing food, which will show you how to prevent food waste!
How do you keep track of the dates on the food in your freezer? I would love to hear about your system!
