Terms of use

This is a reference site. Use it freely, and do not use it as the last word on whether food is safe to eat.

Accuracy

Storage times come from the USDA FoodKeeper data and are reproduced without change. Every comparison, ranking, percentage and date on the site is computed by us from those figures. We check the arithmetic, and we cannot check your refrigerator: the figures assume the food was sound when stored and held as the item pages state: a refrigerator at 40 °F or below, a freezer at 0 °F or below, and a pantry at normal room temperature. Only one of those three is not refrigeration at all.

Not advice

Nothing here is medical advice or a substitute for it. The source prints storage times without saying which mark safety and which mark quality, and this site does not decide that for you. Food can spoil before any range runs out; the FDA and USDA FSIS rules linked on every food page apply whatever the figure says.

Content and reuse

The underlying USDA data is in the public domain. The text, the comparisons and the arrangement of this site are ours. Quote us with a link; do not republish the site wholesale.

Liability

The site is provided as is, without warranty. To the maximum extent permitted by law, BiLingoPlus LLC is not liable for any loss arising from use of this site. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence. These terms are governed by the law of the State of Wyoming, United States.
