Power Cut!! Is food safe?
Hi
Feeling rather peed off.
Yesterday we had an electrician in doing some rewiring in the kitchen. Little did i know that the whole flats power supply would be off for 9 hours! ! Anyway, i didn't feel safe after that eating anything from the fridge cos of what it might do to littlun. So yesterday evening i went to sainsburys and replaced everything in the fridge that could have gone off. We're only using fridge at the mo so no frozen food to think about.
When i got home today there had been a power cut. I've worked out that it was off for a maximum of 3and a half hours and have read somewhere that up to 4 hours is ok.
Now i'm worrying again about eating anything with meat in it or stuff like coleslaw etc yet again. Can't afford to replace it all again tho.
Not sure what to do :?
