This is such a trivial question in light of all of the death and
destruction here in the US, but.......Saturday the power was out at my
house for 14 hours. The outage affected only my house, the power line
from the pole to my house fell down.

We did not open either of our two refrigerators during that 14 hour
period. As soon as the power was restored I immediately checked the
contents and was very pleased to find that the food in the freezer
sections were still frozen. I had not even lost any ice cubes.

The food in the refrigerator sections were still cold to the touch. On
general principle I tossed out the jar of mayonnaisse and all of the
leftovers. What I am now left wonderring is should I pitch out the
bottles of salad dressings (not the Italian, but the rest of them?). And
what about the unopened package of beef salami? We haven't eaten any of
those items yet as I've been trying to decide what to do.

What is your suggestion?
