I live in an apartment building. Another unit recently caught on fire, and the building was evacuated. Smoke was everywhere. No heat reached my part of the building. I have not seen any soot, either.
I tried googling it, but I havenβt been able to find a good answer that relates to things like chip packaging. They still have air in them, and the packaging doesnβt fully match the descriptions of what foods to throw away.
Are things like this ok to eat after smoke exposure, or should I throw *** every *** type of food out? Thanks in advance.
The budget isnβt super tight, but nothing is open yet where I am. Iβm just a bit hungry at the moment, because I missed eating for most of yesterday.
When the stores do open, Iβll be at work and will have to wait until after my shift to buy more food.
I hadnβt heard about this aspect of fire safety before today, so I figured I would see if anyone on here knew more about it. Thank you for responding!
If you can, perhaps talk with your boss about the situation. βI am hungry as my apartment building had a fire and all my food might be covered in toxinsβ, is a one off that gets some extra dispensation.
Edit: your response as 6 hours ago. You either are the chips, or are at work.
