šŸ’” 3 Tips to Keep Your Food Safe During a Power OutagešŸŒ€ As we brace for the storm here in our beloved community, let’s look out for each other and stay prepared! Swipe through for 3 simple tips to help keep your food safe and your freezer cold ā„ļø during a power outage. We’re all in this together. šŸ’Ŗ 1ļøāƒ£ Keep the freezer door closed A full freezer can stay cold up to 48 hours—every time you open the door, warm air sneaks in! 2ļøāƒ£ Pack with ice Fill empty spaces with frozen water bottles, containers, or water-filled Ziploc bags. These will act like ice packs to keep everything colder longer, and also provide drinking water if they melt. 3ļøāƒ£ Monitor the temperature A freezer thermometer is your best friend. If it stays below 40°F, your food is likely safe. Pro Tip: Freeze a cup of water with a coin on top. If the coin sinks, your food may have thawed and refrozen—better to toss it! Stay safe, everyone! šŸ’™ #StormPrep #HurricaneReady #FreezerTips #FoodSafety #DinnerDoneTampa #StayPrepa...
