Food Storage Information Fresh Food When storing fresh food that is not prepackaged, be sure to wrap or store it 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 messes. Eggs should be stored in an upright position in their original carton to maximize shelf life.
Frozen Food Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in packages that do not allow the flow of air or moisture in or out. Improper storage 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.
Proper Refrigerator Care and Cleaning Cleaning and Maintenance Warning: To avoid electric shock, always unplug your refrigerator before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury.
