A vacuum packed turkey will generally last three days in a fridge. After this length of time it will begin to spoil.
Packed in this manner, it will last longer than normal. Usually,meat will last about 5 days. This will last about a week if not opened. It will last about 5 days after opening.
no, this must be thrown away. five years of fish in a fridge is too long for fish. this is not eatable anymore.
No, not at all
Vacuum packed vegetables are blanched, which is a process of partially cooking them in boiling water. They do this because raw vegetables give off gases when stored. Vacuum packed fruits are uncooked when frozen.
Vacuum packed deli meats should be stored in the refrigerator or frozen until ready for use.
It depends somewhat on the meat. However, most red meats and pork can be re-frozen with this caveat: the meat must have been thawed in the refrigerator. If it was quick thawed in water or the microwave, it should not be refrozen. It depends on how completely it was defrosted. If it still had ice crystals it was not thawed completely. If all of it got over 32 Deg F do not refreeze.
this is aquote from a shrooms site, regarding to truffles but i guess might be quite accurate for other shroom types:What is the shelflife of normal packed truffles and vacuum packed truffles?Normally packed mushrooms can be kept for 1 month in the fridge. Unopened, the shelf life of a vacuum pack is 2 - 3 months, BUT the longer it stays in vacuum the shorter the shelflife is after opening.i.e. if you open a vacuum bag immediately after arrival, (fresh as possible) the shelflife of the opened bag would be 1 month. If you open a vacuum bag after 2 months, the shelflife of the open bag would be only 1 week. Due to the vacuum certain reactions take place which shorten the shelflife after oxidation.
Unless you have a precise temperature history of the thawed swordfish, refreezing it would not be recommended. The vacuum packaging could promote the growth of C. boutlinum along with the formation of the toxin if it got above 38 degrees F. Swordfish can also produce histamines when temperature-abused which could result in Scombroid poisoning.
yes
Food that is packed in such a ay that air cannot get to it and without any protective gas in the packaging. Many ground coffees are vacuum packed (the package is hard until you let air in by opening and then it is soft, powder in a plastic bag).
Generally, the rule of thumb is that nothing stays in the fridge for more than 10 days unless it is preserved or canned. By brined I would assume that they have a high concentrate of vinegar. In that case I would say around 21 days, as long as your fridge stays good and cold.
