Meals can be kept in the freezer, however, we suggest storing them in the refrigerator to ensure the best quality. If you are unable to consume the meals by the expiration date, store them in the freezer within 3-4 days of receipt; please, be sure to thaw overnight in the refrigerator before heating. Do not refreeze any foods left outside the refrigerator longer than 2 hours or 1 hour in temperatures above 90 °F.
