Is it Fresh?

We often see the label "fresh" on foods. What does that imply to you? For many of us, we think that if it is labeled "fresh," it just arrived from the grower or the baker right? Not so true. Be eary of this label on foods.

Here's an example. Chicken can be labeled fresh if it is kept at 26 degrees or lower. To me that says frozen chicken and does not necessarily mean that it was "just forzen." This is just one of those things you need to be aware of when shopping. Don't put too much value on fresh as it may not be as fresh as you think.
