How long you can keep food in your freezer
When I was at university, pretty much everything I ate came out of my freezer. Knowing I didn't have a ton of time for meal prep, I would often cook meats and vegetables on the weekend and then defrost it later when I needed something easy to throw together. I also didn't have a ton of money at the time so I would buy meat when it was at a good price and freeze it until I had time to deal with it. And, of course, the meals that mom would send for me would stay frozen until I had a particularly trying day and needed some home-style food.
But how long can you really keep food in the freezer? A couple of weeks, a couple of months… a couple of years?
