Here's why you should always put a coin in the freezer before you go out.


 

I've heard a great tip for those of you leaving the beach. Sheila explains that it is called the "one cup tip." "You put a cup of water in your freezer." Put a 25-cent coin on top of it once it has frozen in the freezer and keep it there.





This simple tip will help you determine if your food is no longer good to eat. "If the ice cube has melted and sunk to the bottom of the glass, you should not eat the food." However, your food will still be okay if the coin is either at the top or in the middle of the cup.









For peace of mind, Sheila recommends always keeping the cup in your freezer. "If the food doesn't make you happy, just throw it away." The most important thing is to keep everyone safe.
