Refrigerator-freezer combinations can be used for storing frozen food if the freezer is a true freezer (will maintain 0°F or less) and not just a freezing compartment. A better quality product will be maintained at 0°F or less. If a freezing compartment is used, store food for only one to two weeks.

Any of our products that are flash frozen and vacuum sealed will last up to one year in your freezer. Product that is flash frozen but not vacuum sealed (Individually Quick Frozen or IQF) will last up to five months in your freezer.

There are several issues to consider when discussing the feasibility of using GLAD Bags in the microwave. Because the plastic will neither be heated by nor interfere with microwave energy, they can be used to hold foods or cover dishes that are being warmed or defrosted. The plastic used in these bags has a low melting point, however.

Food will stay frozen for 36-48 hours in a fully loaded freezer if you keep the door closed. A half-full freezer will generally keep food frozen for 24 hours. If it looks like the power will be out for more than 2 - 4 hours, place refrigerated foods such as milk, dairy products, meats, fish and poultry in a cooler surrounded by ice. Perishable foods should not be left at temperatures above 40 degrees F for more than two hours.

This will depend on the item being stored. However, a food item should last at least three weeks when stored inside a GLAD Freezer Bag.

Sure it will. The meals will be packaged in freezer bags and foil pans. These will easily fit in your freezer with room to spare.

Before you come to Simply Homemade, take a few minutes to clean out your freezer, you're never going to use that mystery meat anyway. Your dinners will be stored in freezer friendly containers like Ziploc bags and foil packets. You'll be surprised how much you can fit on one shelf in your freezer. Also, place several dinners in the refrigerator right away to use that week.

Vacuum-packed pouches like the ones we use to deliver Brothers Blend to you are generally said to provide 2-3 YEARS of protection against freezer burn. We'll be a little more cautious and say that Brothers Blend will remain perfect for serving up to 1 year from the date of manufacture. For mail order (or web) customers who have our product shipped to them, we like to sell it in 3 month supplies, to minimize shipping costs.

Because freezing keeps food safe almost indefinitely, recommended storage times are for quality only. Refer to the freezer storage chart at the end of Focus on Freezing, which lists optimum freezing times for best quality. If a food is not listed on the chart, you may determine its quality after defrosting. First check the odor. Some foods will develop a rancid or off odor when frozen too long and should be discarded.

For best results, we recommend that you consume your meals within forty-five days from the date of assembly.

All our fish can be frozen. Please refer to manufactures guide lines for your particular make and model of freezer. Their manual should specify length of times which fish can safely be stored. If you cannot find this information we recommend no more than 3 months in a freezer which operates below -18°C.

No. Apply lubricant to the applicator and VERY GENTLY apply it directly to the swollen area. Some discomfort may be experienced for a few minutes.

Depending on how well you wrap it will reflect how long it stays in good shape without getting freezer burned. The best advise I can give you is to get the trophy to me as soon as possible to insure a quality mount, if this is not possible I suggest double bagging your trophy and removing all excess air from the bags. Tape and label the package,indicating date taken and your name. You can safely expect 4-6 months.Back to Top

Food may not spoil but the quality (color, flavor, and texture) will decrease. The higher the temperature, the faster quality will diminish.

We used to be Taylor Freezer. With the development of cooking equipment in the mid-80's, our business name was changed to Taylor.

The answer to this question determines the dryness required of the finished product. Rice at harvest might typically contain 24 percent moisture. If it is sold quickly, say, for milling, it is fine as is. If, on the other hand, it is to be stored for any length of time, it must be dried to only 12 to 14 percent moisture content. Thus, the dryness required will determine how long and at what temperature the food must remain in the dryer.

Studies have shown good cord blood cell recovery after up to ten years of storage. Studies are ongoing to determine the storage life of cord blood units.
