How long can I leave leftovers in the fridge?
<|assistant|>
It is recommended to consume leftovers within three to four days of storing them in the fridge. To maintain the quality and safety of the food, it is best to use leftovers within a week. It is important to practice proper food safety when storing food in the fridge. Ensure food container lids are secure and food packaging is air-tight, avoid over-stuffing your fridge, keep the temperature as low as possible and check the food item's expiry date periodically. Additionally, it is best to divide bigger portions into smaller meal-sized portions and freeze uncooked foods, such as ground beef and vegetables, instead of refrigerating them.
