Fridge Safety Tips to Help Prevent Can:cer
The refrigerator is essential for keeping food fresh—but only if you use it properly. Here are key tips to ensure safety and efficiency:
1. Keep Raw and Cooked Foods Separate
Place cooked or ready-to-eat dishes on the upper shelves and raw meat on the lowest level. Always use sealed containers or plastic wrap to stop meat juices from contaminating other foods.
2. Control the Temperature
Your fridge should stay under 4°C (39°F), while the freezer must remain at or below -18°C (0°F). Use a thermometer to check regularly, especially during hot weather or when power supply is unstable.
👉 Pro tip: Avoid putting dairy on the fridge door since temperatures there fluctuate the most.
3. Clean and Sanitize Often
Wipe rubber door seals monthly with 70% alcohol. Once every three months, fully defrost the fridge, empty standing water, and throw out expired food. After a power outage lasting over 4 hours, cook frozen foods thoroughly before eating.
Final Reflection

Don’t rely on coldness alone as proof of freshness.
Handle your fridge wisely, and it could spare you from serious health risks.
