  • Each card identifies whether its interval has an exact source or is still under review. A missing card means no interval is available for that state.
  • An absent after-opening entry must not be replaced with an unopened interval.

When in doubt, throw it out. Refrigerate within 2 hours of purchase or cooking.

How to tell if it's gone bad

Normal appearance and smell do not prove food is safe. Disease-causing bacteria may be present without visible spoilage. Never taste food to test its safety; follow time, temperature and recall guidance. FDA — Storage Basics

  • Look:Discolouration or mould
  • Smell:Sour or off smell
  • Texture:Unusual slimy or mushy texture

When in doubt, throw it out. If Raspberries smells, looks, or feels off — discard it. Food poisoning is not worth the risk.

Storage tips

Do not wash until ready to eat.

Check your storage dates

Compare the elapsed time with the storage guidance. This cannot certify that food is safe.

Use the actual purchase, cooking, opening or thawing date for the selected state. For the freezer, use the freezing date. Do not reset time by repackaging.
Fridge: 4°C / 40°F or below. Freezer: continuously −18°C / 0°F or below, frozen before the refrigerated limit. Pantry: follow the label. Leave unchecked if uncertain.
