Purchasing and storing
deep-frozen food
Follow these guidelines when purchasing deep-frozen
food:
n Make sure the packaging is not damaged.
Check the "sell by" date.
n
The temperature of the supermarket freezer should
n
be lower than 0 °F (-18 °C). If not, this shortens
the storage life of the frozen food.

Wrap in newspaper or place in a cold bag and take
home.
At home, immediately place deep-frozen food in the
n
freezer compartment. Use the deep-frozen food
before the "sell by" date.
