Shopping tips
After grocery shopping:
• Ensure that the packaging is not
damaged - the food could be
deteriorated. If the package is swollen or
wet, it might have not been stored in the
optimal conditions and defrosting may
have already started.
• To limit the defrosting process buy frozen
goods at the end of your grocery
shopping and transport them in a
thermal and insulated cool bag.
• Place the frozen foods immediately in the
freezer after coming back from the shop.
• If food has defrosted even partially, do
not re-freeze it. Consume it as soon as
possible.
• Respect the expiry date and the storage
information on the package.
