Safety and warnings
Power failure – food safety
■
■
Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. Follow
the recommendations below if you discover food in your freezer
has thawed:
1) Ice crystals still visible – food may be refrozen but should be
stored for a shorter period than recommended.
2) Thawed but refrigerator cold – refreezing generally not
recommended. Fruits and some cooked food can be refrozen but
use as soon as possible. Meat, fish, poultry – use immediately or
cook then refreeze. Vegetables – discard as they usually go limp
and soggy.
3) Thawed but warmer than 5°C – discard all foods.
Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The
food may be dangerous to eat.
