[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I put meat on a plate in the fridge just in case.  I do not think of it much beyond that.  Its rare I have one piece of raw meat  in the fridge at the same time.[/quote]

We are a family of 5. We usually have 2-3 dozen eggs, 1 lb of beef, 1 lb of chicken, 1 lb ground turkey.

That will last two days. [/quote]

Family of 4 with two teens but I freeze most meat and just take it out the day before[/quote]

We don’t usually have the wherewithal to plan meals a day ahead, we get home, whichever parent is off first, and cooks what’s available.

I believe freezing and then thawing actually shortens the lifespan in the fridge? So you need to cook soon after thawing?[/quote]

We have a family of four (with teen boys). I don't worry about the eggs - we've never had an issue, though we do store them on the lowest shelf, above the vegetable crispers. For meat, I do what the person above does. Most of it goes in the freezer. Anything that is defrosting or raw, I put in a baking dish - like a 9x13 pan or 8x8 pan, whatever it fits in. Then any leaks are contained. I would think you could do that with whatever amount of meat you have in the fridge, whether it's frozen or just cold. I think freezing and thawing does shorten the fridge lifespan. We always cook defrosted meat with 1-2 days of defrosting. [/quote]
