the foods are already chilled when they go into the insulated hamper. The
hamper won’t chill food - it just keeps food cold when properly packed with
ice. Hot cooked foods should be placed in shallow containers and immediately
refrigerated so they cool rapidly. Make sure to cover foods after they are cool.
NOTE: Special considerations must be made when using venison or other wild
game, since it can become heavily contaminated during field dressing. Venison
is often held at temperatures that could potentially allow bacteria to grow, such
as when it is being transported. Refer to the USDA Meat and Poultry Department
for further questions or information on meat and food safety.
