A freezer is super handy for freezing any kind of food. Be it meat, bread or leftovers, the freezer helps save a lot of food.
But, sometimes we’re a bit unclear on how long we can store food in the freezer before it gets bad.
Here are a few signs that indicate you’re better off throwing these foods in the bin. Take a look.
1. Ice crystals in the packaging
This means water molecules in your food have made their way outside, towards the colder parts of the freezer. It’s not a danger to your health, but it isn’t exactly tasty either. The food loses a lot of its moisture and this has negative effects on both the taste and the texture.
2. Change in colour
3. Meat juices
4. Smell
When the frozen food is smelling a bit funky, that’s your sign to throw it off in the bin without thinking much.
