4lb of whole frozen cranberries (I was driving past an Oceanspray cranberry bog.) 2 pizza crusts 4lbs of frozen corn several loaves of bread, from the bakery in the next town an icecream bucket full of sliced ginger, ready for the next batch of homemade gingerale about 10lbs of misc cuts of lamb 30lbs of seasoned tri-tip steaks (I could live on these) Our last 14lb ribeye steak (yes, all one cut) various frozen veggies Texas toast. tater tots 😃 10 boxes of pizza rolls (yippie for pizza rolls) At one point this summer, I estimated that we had $800-1000 worth of steaks in our freezer. I was starting to wonder if we needed to put a rider on our insurance policy. ---

Unitl a week ago I didn’t have a freezer. It’s not really essential when you live right next to a superstore. Going from memory. Burgers. Fish fingers. a Loaf of Bread. Four baps. A bag of ice. It’s only a small freezer. ---

_checks freezer_ One teeny tray of ice cubes, which happily fit in my narrow-mouth water battle. One chocolate power bar Three 2-packs of s’mores pop-tarts. And it’s crowded, too! did I mention I’m living in a dorm and have a 1.8 cu.ft. fridge with a teeny tiny freezer compartment? ---

Geez, some of you folks have big freezers. Four ice trays. Gallon of Edy’s Grand cookie dough ice cream. Package of veggie burgers. Veggie ‘chicken’ nuggets. Starving grad student stuff, though thanks to Vanderbilt’s generous TA program perhaps not quite as starving as some. ---

We just bought and stocked a chest freezer for the garage the other week. So in it we have: [ul] [li]case of 40 Eggos[/li][li]5 lbs of salmon fillets[/li][li]4 lbs of scallops[/li][li]roughly 1/8th of a steer (half of a hind quarter from the local butcher shop. About $260 for 8 T-Bones, 4 fillets, some sirloin, a couple london broils, a couple roasts, and assorted hamburger, stew meat and some lesser steaks. I found it a unique experience, I had never ordered beef by the “fraction of a steer” before.)[/li][li]3 mushroom risottos from Trader Joes[/li][li]a dozen thick-cut pork chops[/li][/ul] -lv ---

2 frozen pizzas, 4 pizza hot pockets, corn on the cob, a carton of milk, one popsicle, an empty ice tray, AA Batteries, a credit card in a block of ice, frozen peas, frozen carrots, 2 frozen hamburgers. Yes I am serious about the credit card thats where my mom keeps it so she will think about if she really should buy something. As for why the milk is in there, I have no clue. ---

Lord knows. We have four freezers: One fridge/freezer, two full-sized freezers and one big chest freezer. I’m not generally the one who puts things in them, so I’m more than a little uncertain what’s there. I know it includes: Ice Various ice creams, home made and store bought. No doubt a random selection of meats. A truly ridiculous quantity of fruit and veg: Raspberries, blackberries, beans, peas, currants in all the colours of the rainbow (well, ok, red, white and black, but who’s counting?), probably still some pumpkin from last year. I think we’ve got a carton of soy milk in there somewhere. Probably one or two frozen pizzas. Not sure what else really. That doesn’t sound enough, but I guess it is the fruit and veg that takes up most of the space (The two full sized freezers are devoted almost entirely to it, and I suspect there’s a fair number of bags in the chest freezer as well) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-in-your-freezer/264510.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-in-your-freezer/264510.md?page=3)
