pieces as possible. Protect your hands with
gloves when using dry ice.

available, use or con perishable food at
once.

The length oftime food will stay frozen depends
on several factors. For instance: a full freezer
will remain cold longer than a freezer only par-
tially filled. And a freezer full of meat will stay
cold longer than a freezer filled with baked
goods. Also, if the food still contains ice crystals,
it may be safely refrozen, although the quality
and flavor may be affected. Use this food as
soon as convenient. If the condition of the food
is poor or is in any way questionable, it is wise
to dispose of it.
