Tonight we answered a Good Question about leftovers (keep them for 2 to 3 days, and then pitch them). But Registered Dietitican Sue Moores also prepared a handout for Kowalski's Markets about storing other foods. How long can we keep that meat in the fridge before we freeze it or eat it? What about processed foods?
Here's her guide:
Chicken, Turkey, Fish 1-2 days
Ground Beef/Poultry 1-2 days
Beef, Veal, Pork, Lamb 3-5 days
Cured Ham 5-7 days
Uncooked Sausage 1-2 days
Milk 5-7 days after date
Eggs 3-5 weeks
Bacon, Hot Dogs, Lunch Meat
UNOPENED: 2 weeks
OPENED: 5-7 days
Deli Meat Up to 3 days
