According to the Food and Drug Administration, your fridge should be set at or below 40 F (4 C). Your freezer should be set at 0 F (-18 C). Food stored in the freezer at 0 F will remain safe indefinitely, although the quality will decrease the longer the food is in the freezer. Freezing does not change a food's nutritional value.
Even if your freezer seems to be doing its job, you should know the correct temperature to set it to! Kitchen Fact: The ideal temperature range for your freezer is 0Â° Fahrenheit or below (-18Â° Celsius or below). Food stored at 0Â° Fahrenheit or below is safe to eat indefinitely (although quality and taste may be compromised after a while). While many foods will freeze at about 32Â° Fahrenheit, they need to be stored at 0Â° Fahrenheit to slow down deterioration, so colder is better. And don't worry about freezer burn with really cold temperatures â it's caused by exposure to air, not temperature.
