High temperatures in summer can quickly damage fresh fruits and vegetables, but they can also accelerate the growth of microorganisms responsible for food poisoning, especially in meat and fish.
As a general rule, meat can NEVER be left out of the fridge for more than 2 hours, but in summer, when temperatures are very high, we must refrigerate as soon as possible. At temperatures of 30ºC, microorganisms multiply rapidly.
If the outside temperature is high, we must think that inside a parked car this temperature is even much higher, so here are some recommendations to keep buying food during the car trip:

A deadly outbreak of infections from Listeria is under investigation by state and local officials in Washington.
As of late today five patients had been identified. All five required hospitalization and three have died, according to the Tacoma-Pierece County Health Department.
All of the patients are or were in their 60s or 70s and all had weakened immune systems, according to the health department, which is working with Washington State Department of Health (DOH) and Thurston County Public Health and Social Services.
The Tacoma News is reporting that “genetic fingerprinting results (whole genome sequencing) indicate that these patients likely have the same source of infection. Patients became ill between February 27 and June 30, 2023.”
State and local public health officials have not yet discovered a source for the bacteria. They are interviewing patients and their representatives to develop a profile.
The state of Washington generally logs 10 to 25 cases of Listeria infection annually, according to the Tacoma health department.
