Food & Drink - 30 April 2007

Ok, if i have food stored in a walk-in cooler (supposed to be 40 degrees?), whats the best way to keep the following stuff fresh for as long as possible:

Lettuce heads
Tomatoes
Eggs
Chiken (1 or 2 cases of cut up fryer type, split up as 2 birds per plastic bag , 6 bags in a case, which is in a bigger heavy plastic bag, and stored in the standard cardboard box)

bacon - 1 or 2 commercial restaurant size boxes (or case)


In case you're wondering, i'm the newly appointed "manager" of a grill, and new to the job, new to the process - and no, i have no official "food safety" training, just a bit of common sense, and have already taken the decision to throw out anything i was suspect of being "bad", ....since the last person quit and left me no clue.

I always liked the original fried chicken recepie but for several years now it does not taste the same. What Happened? Did they lose the secret recepie or did they not pass all ingredients along to whoever they sold out to?

Okay, so does it make a difference if you stand a bottle up or lay it on its side for wine storage?

Please explain, thanks ;)

I went grocery shopping last night with my son. He is 5 years old and asked me for a bottle of juice. I paid no attention to the bottle when we were at the store. Once we got home he asked me for a cup of juice. When I went to open it I saw a fly inside floating. I didnt even open it completely because it freaked me out.

What should I do? Do I call the company and tell them? Or just take it back to the store? My brother-in-law tells me I should sue. That seems like a hassle to me....

I know it's not if the egg isn't fertile and of course the ones you buy at a grocery store are approved and are non fertile but what about ones that are grown at a chicken farm?
