How can I keep track of what is already cooked and what needs to be used first?
Label containers with the contents and preparation date, keep older items visible and review the refrigerator regularly. Use a simple note or checklist if several components are prepared in advance.
Why it happens
Cooked food is forgotten when containers are not visible, dates are unclear or new items are placed in front of older ones. Without a record, it is easy to exceed safe storage times.
How it works
External reminders reduce dependence on memory. Date labels help track storage time, though safe handling and temperature still matter more than appearance alone.
