Food Storage for Safety and Quality

The length of time a food can be safely stored in the refrigerator depends on many things: • The freshness or condition of the food when it was put into the refrigerator (Is it still within the time period for use as indicated by the date on the package? Is the product free of mold or insect damage? Is the food fresh or cooked?)
