As we get ready for Thanksgiving, it’s a good time to brush up on food safety! Remember: perishable foods shouldn’t sit out for more than 2 hours. Keep hot foods at 140°F+ and cold foods at 40°F or below.
After the meal, store leftovers right away in shallow containers so they cool quickly. Use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days and reheat until steaming hot.
A few simple steps help keep everyone healthy and happy this holiday. Happy Thanksgiving!
