How long can chicken beef and pork be frozen and still be safe to eat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

From a microbiological standpoint, it would be safe forever. Palatability is another issue and will depend upon how good the freezer is and on the packaging used.

Raw cuts of beef could be OK for 6-12 months. Ground beef or small pieces should be used within 3-4 months. Use up cooked beef within 3 months.

What precaution must you take with a beverage container so you can drink from it while working in the kitchen?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You do need to comply with local laws, but kitchen workers should be given the opportunity to consume liquids - particularly since kitchens are notoriously hot.

Make sure the beverage container has a cover and a straw. It must be located where it cannot spill onto food or food contact surfaces or can otherwise adulterate food. The person drinking it has to ensure that touching the beverage container does not provide a source of cross contamination, so it is best to wash and sanitize hands after handling the container.

How can humanure be made safe to use as fertilizer?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Actually, unknown to a lot of people, human excreta is used a lot in fertilising the soil.

In the UK there are stringent rules about where excreta can be used - such as it can only be used on pasture for two years, but after that, crops can be grown in what is soil that has been fertilised with human waste.

Still, pasture, where cows graze, has been "munched" by cows feeding on your waste.

How long does it take mayo on a sandwich at 70 degrees to go bad?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

look at the expiration date, if its in the jar in the fridge it should last about 2-3 months. if its on a sandwich it should last a few hours, depending on how cool it is.
