Traveling And Frozen Foods.


Jaymie Jaymz

We're driving up to Kansas for the holidays and I'd like to take some frozen donuts, maybe some bread as well. How long can they be left out of the freezer?? Are they really that perishable? The drive will take a good seven hours before we reach the hotel and a fridge/freezer.

I really don't want to pack an ice chest. Space is limited in the car as it is.

Can they be kept in the fridge once they're defrosted? I would think it'd be fine to bring them along and pack them together in a bag in the car and then just pop them in the fridge once you're there.

I travel 15 hrs to get to KS and visit home! So, lucky you, lol! I would say that this is the time of year you shouldn't have to worry too much about keeping something cold enough. Put it in your trunk and in a place that doesn't cover and insulate them and they should be fine. I wouldn't think they are THAT perishable! Have a nice holiday and my prayers for safe travels.

Yes, they are going right into a fridge upon arrival. I think they'll be fine, too. I didn't even consider the cooler weather. That should help.

I'll have to take my chances either way. Can't imagine being around the gluten filled goodies all day and not having something sweet for myself. I'm such a sugar addict!

Thank you for the prayers! I'm a nervous nelly on road trips, especially if I'm not the one driving. Hehe.

Not sure why you want to come here to Kansas. It's very cold and they put a picture of wheat on the liscense plate. But, if you insist....just let me know when you plan to visit. :)

Haha. Well, it's the in-laws turn to have family out for Christmas this year, and that's about the only reason we're going up. I lived there for three years and still own a home in Junction City. Needless to say, I was happy to move away from the snow and tornadoes!

      @Known1, I submitted the following comment along with my contact information: "I have noticed that many food companies voluntarily include information in their ingredient/allergen label section when the product is made in an environment where cross contamination with any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA may also be likely. Even though celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are, technically speaking, not allergic responses, it would seem, nonetheless, appropriate to include "gluten" in that list for the present purpose. That would insure that food companies would be consistent with including this information in labeling. Best estimates are that 1% of the general population, many undiagnosed of course, have celiac disease and more than that are gluten sensitive."

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.  Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years.  Doctor recently said to not stop.  My 25(OH)D is around 200 nmol/L (80 ng/ml) but it took about six years to get there.  Increasing vitamin D also increases absorption of Calcium. A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1

      Here is a link to the spreadsheet I kept to track my nutrition intakes.  Maybe it will give you ideas. It is not https so browsers may flag a security warning. There is nothing to send or receive. http://doodlesnotes.net/index3.html I tracked everything I ate, used the National Nutrition Database https://www.foodrisk.org/resources/display/41 to add up my daily intake and supplemented appropriately.  It tracks about 30 nutrients at once.
