another "How long do you keep it?" thread :)

Personally, I try to freeze anything I am not going to use in a day-because I have a tendancy to forget about it sometimes--out of sight, out of mind.

Storage Times for the Refrigerator and Freezer

Leftovers Cooked meat or poultry 3 to 4 days (Refrigerator -40 °F or below)

This is me! I really try to freeze items also. But sometimes, I just forget about it.

Experience first hand....please do not forget about the broccoli you put in the fridge last week. Nasty! My kids moved the bowl from the top shelve (in view) to the bottom shelve under the drawer (not in view). Forgot about it and it STINKS!! I ended up throwing everything away in the fridge and cleaning it out.
