The numbers are Well Stockd’s own planning estimates, set from USDA FoodKeeper and FSIS guidance on typical refrigerated storage; each food’s page shows the source windows beside them. FoodKeeper says its storage times are useful guidelines, not hard-and-fast rules. Follow product labels and consult the official entry for the food’s preparation and storage condition.
