Storage of Meats Poultry and Seafood

It should tell you on the can. If just processed and left unopened, it should be good for a year - perhaps longer. The brand I just bought is coded with a 2-year shelf life.

If the can is opened, pour the contents into a storage container, refrigerate it and use within a week.

For best quality, it should be used within a couple days.

Potentially hazardous food should not be left unrefrigerated for more than 2 hours. Make that one if the ambient temperature is very warm. At that point, it should be refrigerated or re-heated.

Microbiologically, they should be OK since they are a shelf stable product. But they could pick up flavors from the fridge and the chocolate could 'bloom' and turn white/gray.

No. That's about 64.4 degrees Fahrenheit and is not cold enough to prevent the growth of pathogens.

Yes. It can go in the fridge now.

It should go into the fridge within 2 hours or less of being removed from the heat. Separate it into smaller pieces to help it cool faster.

Room temperature steak won't necessarily make you sick. It would depend how long it has been at room temperature and whether any pathogens grew on it during that time frame.

It means without a care.

Wrongfully taking possession of something (an object, or a role, or a right). eg: "In 1931, the US banks colluded in FDR's lightning misappropriation of Americans' savings in gold coin form."

A week is a little long to keep the meat refrigerated. You can be sure it will be good for 3 to 5 days. To keep it longer, you should freeze the meat.

When determining whether or not the food is any good, it is the temperature of the food itself that is important. If the pork was 40°F, there's likely no problem. If the pork is 56°F, then you need to determine how long it was at that temperature.

If you are in doubt, don't use it.

yes as long as you don't allow them to get freezer burn

Meats do not last long in the refrigerator. Only about 3 to 4 days if it is raw. Then 1 to 2 days longer if cooked and placed in an airtight container. You should always cover meats when stored in the fridge.

Canning is a very popular method of preserving food, especially garden produce. It was originally developed in France by a chemist named Nicolas Appert in response to a drive by Napoleon to find a way to get more healthy foods for his army while on the march. He figured out that if he heated foods in jars and then sealed them that the foods would stay relatively fresh until they were opened months and even years later. Since then advances have been made in canning. Louis Pasteur figured out that it was microorganisms that were spoiling the food. The heat used in the canning process kills the microorganisms. Botulism can still be a problem in food that is improperly canned. Canning fresh produce can preserve vitamins, and it has the added benefit of allowing a person to prepare food to taste. Soups, pickles, jams, jellies and more can all be prepared using favorite recipes. People who require a low salt diet or have other restrictions can make sure that their canned vegetables are tailor made to their taste and health requirements. Canned goods can last for several years. However, their optimal life is one year. It is most efficient to can enough garden produce to last until the next harvest. This is because, over time, aging canned goods do, indeed, lose some of their crispness and nutritional value.

i bought a fresh ready meal .liver and bacon froze it ,without ready the box ,got it out to defrost ,then noticed it said not for frezzin will it still be ok to eat ,........... it will be fine

It can be difficult to reheat beef Wellington. The pastry is not as good once it is reheated. You can try wrapping the Wellington in foil and heating it in a 350 degree oven for around ten minutes.

Uh... Very?

Well typically when you look at the female bodies anatomy you'll find the eggs located inside the ovaries. You can find the eggs and extract them by taking a metal rod and then shoving up inside the females vagina also known as the "pussy". Once the metal rod is inserted, you must force it through the cervix, and then jiggle it around a little bit, once you feel a tug you know that you have just fished the ovaries. Quickly pull the rod out and then there you go, cut open the ovaries and then there are all the eggs.

why not? it's just another form of meat...

Ham should be good 4 to 5 days refrigerated.

They do have bones and that is a fact!!!

They do not have bones, they have cartilage.

Yes, poached eggs are considered potentially hazardous. They will support the rapid growth of pathogens, have a high water activity and a pH above 4.6.

Coconut meat is the white-ish stuff inside the ripe coconut. Coconuts have an outer husk, a shell, and meat when mature. When they are still immature the insides are liquid (coconut milk) and as they mature, the coconut milk starts to turn into the coconut "meat" or "flesh".

It is being used, in a sense, like the term walnut "meat" referring to the edible part of the nut (coincidentally also in a shell).
