Food Storage Information

Fresh Food
• When storing fresh food that 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 sealed plastic bags
before storing in the refrigerator.
• Vegetables with skins should be stored in plastic bags or
containers.
• Leafy vegetables should be washed and dried, then stored in
plastic bags or containers.
• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the
refrigerator. 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
• Ground Beef
• Cold Cuts
