Frozen Food:
• Wipe containers before storing to avoid needless spills.
• Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the freezer.
This will prevent unnecessary energy use.
• When storing meats, keep in the original
packaging or rewrap as necessary.
• Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in pack-
ages, which do not allow the flow of air or moisture in, or out. Improper stor-
age will result in odor and taste transfer and will result in the drying out of the
improperly packaged food.
• Follow package or container instructions for proper storage.
• Packaging Recommendations:
Plastic containers with air tight lids
Heavy duty aluminum foil
Plastic wrap made from saran film
Self-sealing plastic bags
• Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.
• It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the
packaging.

• TV Dinners
• Fresh Shrimp, scallops, crawfish
• Hamburger & stew meats
• Ground Turkey, veal, pork
• Chops
