Power failure — food safety
• Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed
completely. The food may be dangerous to eat.
Follow the recommendations below if you discover
food in your freezer has thawed:
– Ice crystals still visible — food may be refrozen
but should be stored for a shorter period
than recommended.
– Thawed but refrigerator cold — refreezing
generally not recommended. Fruits and some
cooked food can be refrozen but use as soon as
possible. Meat, fish, poultry — use immediately or
cook then refreeze. Vegetables — discard as they
usually go limp and soggy.
– Thawed and warmer than 5°C — discard all food.
