If the door is kept closed, food in a full freezer will stay frozen for 15- 20 hours after the power is shut off. If you anticipate that the power will be o ff more than one day, you will need to take some action. If it's possible to move the food to a local freezer plant or the home of a friend, pack it in insulated box­ es or wrap it in thick layers of blank­ ets or newspapers. “ If you ca n ’t put your food in another freezer, dry ice can be used in your freezer to keep food cold,” says Marilyn. Fifty pounds o f dry ice will keep food frozen for 36 hours in a 20 cubic foot freezer. Put a layer o f heavy cardboard between the food and (he dry ice. "If food starts to thaw, some can be refrozen when the power comes on again,” says Carolyn Raab, Ore­ gon State University Extension foods and nutrition specialist. Any food that still contains ice crystals is safe to refreeze although there may be com e changes in the quality. "Raw meats that have completely thawed can be refrozen if they are still c o ld ,” Raab says. The many harmless bacteria that grow on raw meat at low temperatures will pre­ vent the growth of harmful bacteria. C ooked m eals and leftovers won't be safe to cat if they have been warmed above refrigerator temperature, warns Ms. Raab. Bacteria may grow rapidly in vegetables without causing any signs o f spoilage. Refreeze vegetables only if they are still cold (at refriger­ ator temperature). "Thawed fruits may be safely re­ frozen, but they may have a ‘yeasty’ flavor if fermentation has begun,” says Raab. When you refreeze food , do it quickly. Turn the freezer to the low­ est setting until the food is frozen solid. Even when there isn’t a threat of a power failure, check your freezer regularly to make sure that it is working properly.
