Answer: Chill stage of food safety which refers to refrigeration and freezing of food properly

Step-by-step explanation:

Chill: Refrigerate and Freeze Food Properly.

foods should be refrigerated within 2 hours or even earlier if the temperature is too hot after being bought especially those that need to be kept in the fridge at all times.

If the food has been in a car it needs to be refrigerated atleast within an hour because of the heat otherwise you risk it being spoiled.
