Why is the fridge freezing food at the bottom?
I don't know but I worked for this lady who was 83 and I would take her shopping for her groceries. She always bought red meat, steaks or ground beef or liver, even chicken or whatever.
She and I would go to eat and she wanted to go pay her bills.
We went to thrift stores.
I remember her groceries being in the car for two hours and I asked her why she didn't seem concerned about leaving her groceries that long without refrigerating them., She always said, "They'll be okay."
It really did concern me but I knew she knew what she was doing, she was very sharp.
Anyway she always was okay and she said two hours was the limit to leave them without refrigeration.
So go figure about your chest freezer.
Personally I would not leave them for more than an hour.

How should I store uncooked chicken?
Robin's Expert Answer gives excellent advice. Make sure the raw chicken is not stored where it can drip on any other food items.
Chicken should be stored as stated in a temperature of between 1 and 5 degrees C for best results. When purchasing it should be transported in a chilled environment i.e either in a shoppers cool bag or with chilled /frozen foods with it - The basic out of chilled envionment time is about 30 minutes. Once cooked it can again be stored (in a sealed container) in the same chilled temperature for 3 to 5 days. Freezing will keep the chicken for 9 to 12 months as a whole uncooked meat.
I'd say about 5 days or under because it will get molded soon. Hope this helps! :)

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.
