March Frozen Food Month is Brought to You by These Leading Manufacturers.

Look for their tasty products in your frozen food aisles. And click on any brand logo to visit their websites for additional meal solutions and product updates.

 

NOW IS A GREAT TIME to check out the “Cool Aisles” of the store and see what’s new in frozen foods. They have come a long way since introduced in 1930 by Clarence Birdseye! Today’s frozen foods are not only convenient; they offer unparalleled freshness, quality and taste. You can find many new and exciting selections for great-tasting meals, snacks, desserts and more.

And you may find Manny, Sid, Diego, Scrat and all of the Ice Age gang in the frozen food aisles as Ice Age The Meltdown is scheduled to hit movie theatres March 31st!

The proper handling and storing of frozen foods is important for food safety, as well as the quality of the product.

  • Make the Frozen Food aisle your last stop in the store.
  • Pack all frozen items together – it will help them maintain their cold temperature.
  • Head home promptly and unpack the frozen items first.
  • Don't overload the freezer as the cold air needs room to circulate.
  • Once you have thawed a frozen item, use it right away.
  • Never re-freeze frozen foods.
To ensure you are preparing the freshest of frozen foods ... consider marking each newly-purchased frozen item with a purchase or freezing date. You can then rotate the foods in your freezer, putting the most recently purchased items in the back, and using the frozen food items on a “first-to-go-in, first-to-come-out” basis.
Try frozen blueberries ... they taste like sorbet, but have no added sugar, and pack a huge antioxidant punch!
