fresh food.
Select frozen foods last when shopping, transport in a cool bag and place in freezer
compartment as soon as possible after arriving home.
Always defrost frozen food before cooking unless instructions on the packet state
otherwise.

Liguid-filled bottles or sealed fizzy drinks must not be stored in freezer or chiller
