You're right about that CZ. Around here we definitely have freezer management!! I own the same house I grew up in. Until I was about 40, we had exactly TWO power outages in my lifetime. TWO. Since global warming has kicked in- now we have about 2-4 PER YEAR. I have two portable generators I can run. So, I don't really worry about food going bad that much. But still, it's a good time to start getting rid of stuff. That's when the "freezer management" kicks in and it's best to start eating and getting rid of everything. I don't have to worry about food getting too old to eat. Everything I eat I know is going to be fresh. As long as meat stays at zero degrees, you're okay. But when it starts creeping up, that means trouble. Freezer management. Good idea.
