Spring Cleaning: Don't Forget the Fridge!Related Videos
How to Make Organic Cleaning Supplies
As we await the warm weather, let's do some all-natural Spring Cleaning!...  Spring is in full bloom and it’s time to give your home a thorough spring cleaning. This year, be sure to include the refrigerator among your chores. Cleaning out your fridge and freezer will not only make things tidier, but will also improve the safety and quality of your food.
Bread products that contain eggs but have been baked (like muffins) can safely be kept at room temperature for about a week. If you see signs of mold, they should be tossed. Bakery items (which should have a “sell-by” date) that contain custards, meat, vegetables, or frostings made of cream cheese, whipped cream, or eggs should be kept refrigerated. Bottom line: While you may be methodical about checking nutrition labels on foods for calories and fat content, keep in mind the dangers of improper food storage. Thus, along with your usual hard work, resolve to add the refrigerator and freezer to your spring-cleaning list this year. And in general, be sure to follow expiration dates to determine how long foods are safe to eat. Of course, regardless of the date on any product, throw out any food that smells funny or has something growing on it that you think shouldn’t be there.
