because this is the NC group but I'm glad you checked in. I don't know the answer to your question about the car.

About the food, I would eat those things that are three days old first but only if they don't smell, look or taste bad. When tasting only try a small amount on the tip of the tongue not an actual bite.

Some food can last longer than you would think without refrigeration. If you leave your freezer closed those foods won't spoil as fast especially if the freezer is full.

I'm sorry you have been caught up in this disaster. But there is always someone here at DU if you need to reach out, have a question or just need to vent.

NO! I did what so many others have done. But at 77, and a disabled vet, I can't do more. Others in my community Wonder Why Oct 4 #12
