Freezing food pauses biological time by stopping bacteria and enzymes that cause spoilage and decay.

The Science of Freezing Food

Freezer Guidelines

Remember, keeping your freezer at the food safety-approved 0°F (-18°C) isn’t just recommended; it’s a golden rule.

Food-Specific Freezing Times

Freezing Without Power

In a complete power shutdown, a full freezer should keep everything safely frozen for about 48 hours—24 hours if it’s half-full.
