• pre-cooked meats such as beef and ham,
• prepared salads (including pre-washed salad greens, rice, potato salad mixed cut and pre
packaged, etc.).

• Vegetables, fruit, fresh salads, unwashed lettuce, tomatoes, and radishes should be stored
in this compartment.

Notes:
• Always place raw meat, fish and poultry on the lowest shelf of the refrigerator.
• Ensure that food is well-wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from
dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing flavour and will help maintain freshness. It will
also prevent cross-flavouring.
