Commercially Frozen Foods
The storage time and the recommended temperature for storing
commercially frozen foods are indicated on the packaging. For storing
and using consider the manufacturer's instruction. When shopping, be
careful and choose only adequately packed foods provided with
complete data and stored in freezers where the temperature is not
higher than -18°C. Do not buy packages of food covered with frost
layer. This indicates that the package was thawed before at least once.
Be careful that packages don't start to thaw, as the temperature raise
reduces the quality of foods.
