   What is Freezer Burn?

   • Freezer burn is when foods in the freezer are exposed to cold, dry air, which causes them to dehydrate and form ice crystals over time. This process affects the quality of the foods, rather than the safety. Freezer burn can be avoided by carefully packaging foods in the freezer and checking foods aren’t kept for too long.

   How long does a freezer last if the door is closed?

   • As long as a freezer with its door ajar is continuing to cool, the food should stay safe overnight. A freezer full of food will usually keep for about 2 days if the door is shut. A half-full freezer will last about 1 day if the door is shut. To determine the safety of food when the power is restored, check their condition and temperature.

   How long can you freeze food after expiration date?

   • As a general rule and to maintain the quality, food should not be stored in a freezer for longer than 6 months (provided that your freezer is suitable for storing foods for this length of time. See star ratings above). Can I freeze foods which have passed their “use by” date? No. Food should only be frozen if they are within the 'use by' date.

   Can you freeze food after use-by-date?

   • Do not freeze any foods after their "use-by-date", because they will not be safe to eat. An icy freezer is an inefficient one, so make sure you defrost your freezer if ice builds up. Don't worry about the food; most things will remain frozen in the fridge for a couple of hours while the freezer defrosts. Freezing does not kill bacteria.
