A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

8C is about 46F.
Right from the USDA government agency.

Bacteria grows more rapidly in food starting at about 40F.
I think I'll trust the food safety agency over some random pretentious guy on Lemmy thanks very much.
Sorry for only telling how it is in europe. Here in Germany the desired fridge temperature according to state guidelines should be 7-8°C and that's what I'm commenting. Just pointing out that the differences are stunning and funny.
Interesting how different international standards are. 3-4°C seems like a big difference between the agencies!

Typical European attitude I see
I'm sorry but what is the typical attitude here? Finding it interesting how things and standards differ between regions? Do you feel judged by me just stating the fact that in Europe we use a different fridge design than Americans do?
It's a bit more nuanced than that:

They said up to 8°C is fine for most of the stuff, 4°C for meat and 2°C for minced meat
