Direct guidance
What to know or do
Follow the package washing instruction, keep the food refrigerated and eat it promptly after opening. Discard it after a recall or if storage temperature or handling is uncertain.
What changes the answer
- Whether every ingredient is pasteurised or cooked through
- How the food was chilled, stored, handled and reheated
- The exact species, product label, recall or contamination warning

When to get individual help
Check the exact item or situation with a doctor, midwife, pharmacist or relevant clinician; the name of a broad category is not enough for a personal decision.
