Hello Glad
I've just had a look at our freezer. On the drawer, it has symbols for types of food/meat etc. The chicken symbol has 10 - 12..........which means that you can store chicken for 10 to 12 months.
Have a look for symbols and numbers on your freezer door or drawers etc.
As I've been so good...........can I wear my mittens in class tomorrow please? My hands are very cold now.:D10 Dec 2007 - Led Zeppelin - I was there. :j [/COLOR]:cool2: I wear my 50 (gold/red/white) blood donations pin badge with pride. [/SIZE][/COLOR]Give blood, save a life. [/B]0 -
Until it stops kicking?
You should be ok even if it goes beyond (a little) the recommendation ... how long has yours been frozen?
Is it a fresh one you froze yourself? Or, a frozen one you put in? (Pre-frozen one's should have a date stamp on them to use as a guide)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
