16 years in the fridge

2013-10-18 23:03:23.216006+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

So the real lesson isn't that the EPA found a 16 year old can of soup in its refrigerators during the shutdown:

From the e-mail: “During the shutdown, we made every effort to water accessible plants. And of necessity, the refrigerators were emptied of all perishable foodstuffs last week. The oldest food found? A can of Campbell’s soup dated 1997! So, please remember it is everyone’s responsibility to keep the refrigerators clean.”

it's that... wait a minute... is a 16 year old refrigerator Energy Star compliant?
