I think that produce is fine but I'd toss the dairy and meat.

Toss perishables. Does the fridge have a light bulb in it that turns on when the door opens? If so, those get HOT and that probably explains the high temperature.

if you don't think it got to 113 then likley the fridge might have gotten to around 40 maybe mid 40's, which is still IMO safe.. all depends on how risk adverse you are..


If it got above 40 for more than 2 hours, it’s done.

As an aside, some newer refrigerator models sound an alarm, and send an alert to your phone, if a door is left ajar. GE's Cafe series is one such model I know of.

113? No, and what is the temp after you close it

I wouldn’t eat meat/fish but everything else you can determine by taste/smell

Is it in the house or an un air conditioned garage? I would toss things like raw meat but not worry about the mustard bottle.

Throw out the perishables.

12 years is a decent lifespan fora refrigerator. Honestly I wouldn’t be worried about the food. Your fridge probably used more energy to keep things cold but they were likely kept cold.

Are the perishables garbage? Milk smells fine 🤷‍♀️

Fridge temperature said 113 but I don't know how that's possible?? Fridge is 12 years old, kitchenaid. Does running that much make it more likely it will quit soon?
