How safe is frozen food if left unpowered for 24 hours?
It depends on the food, but in the grocery store where I work we have to throw frozen meat out within three hours of losing power. If you are planning to cook the meat right away it should still be good. Especially if the meat is still cold. If kept in the fridge it should be okay for another day or two.
Is it safe to cook packaged sausage if it is left out over night?
No. Any meat that is left out for more than three hours should definitely be thrown away. When the temperature of food stays above 41 degrees, that's when bacteria starts to grow and it spoils. You can get a few hours out of it, but definitely not overnight. Same if it was frozen. Always thaw frozen foods in the refrigerator or in an ice water bath.
Can you still cook perogies if they thawed out when frozen?
Yes, you can still cook perogies if they thawed out while frozen, as long as they were thawed safely in the refrigerator and not left at room temperature for too long.

However, if they were thawed at room temperature for an extended period, it's best to discard them to avoid food safety risks. Always ensure they are heated thoroughly before serving.
