This coming week is Get Thusly to Your Freezer – Get CLEAN !!!
You know darned well it’s been over a year since you went through your freezer to clean it out and some of you never have.
Put down that fancy encyclopedia you’ve been reading, it’s time to go have some fun. First open up the fridge and see if you can turn OFF the freezer portion by itself. If not, just turn the entire fridge off.
Pull everything out and sort it by piles of this and piles of that, toss what you can’t figure out what it might be. I found some really interesting meat parts, some sausage shaped, some not really shaped much at all.
Toss what you haven’t used in 6 months. If it is meat, toss if it’s older than a month or two. Keep in mind, you shouldn’t be freezing meat unless it going to be used as stock or if it is vacuum sealed. I understand it is so nice just to pull something out of the freezer for that night or the next. Would you please spend a little more time and buy things fresh? You’re missing out on some great flavors and nutriments by freezing your diet. IT’S SUMMER TIME YOU NITS !!! There’s fresh food outside your door, go find it.
Where was I? Oh yeah. Whip up some of your favorite cleaning solution, I use spray 409 & paper towels. Then wash with clean water and dry thoroughly. Now you have a really nice clean happy freezer, put your stuff back. Don’t worry about organizing it, you’ll ruin that system in a day anyway.
Meathenge says do it.
