for a picnic, make sure the foods are already chilled when they go into the insulated
hamper. The hamper won’t chill food - it just keeps food cold when properly packed
with ice. Hot cooked foods should be placed in shallow containers and immediately
refrigerated so they cool rapidly. Make sure to cover foods after they are cool.
