Ever wonder how long you can keep items in the refrigerator?

2. What a helpful list!

Now I don't have to suffer the pangs of indigestion from absentmindedly eating expired food. :)

3. That is a good site.

I've always wondered about eggs. Now I know!

4. wow - i was just wishing a site such as this existed

cuts down on all those calls to my mom!

14. I do that too

I call my mom whenever I have food questions

5. You can KEEP stuff in there forever. Just don't try to EAT it.

If you keep anything in the freezer long enough it will taste like green peppers. Isn't that weird?

6. No, not as long as my daughter lives with me.

Some stuff goes in there and the next time it is seen it is totally unrecognizable with a life form all it own.

7. All this time I have been freezing Egg Beaters

then using them for baking, oops.

8. Did they still work OK?

I've thought about putting them in the freezer for this winter.
I've frozen pudding before with no problems.
I wonder how accurate this list is.:shrug:

9. I never fronze them but have kept them too long in fridge, they turn

a more mustardy yellow -- kind of gross. Pretty good product, but for omlettes, I find it necc. to cook the life out of them otherwise I am unhappy with consistency.

10. I got a carton of milk with a picture of the Lindbergh baby on it...

Now that's been there a LONG time! :rofl:

15. .

Good one!

[RedCloud]

11. What about ice?

How long will that keep?

And the light bulb?

13. I figure it'll let itself out of the fridge...

So, this is a trick question, right?
