Food storage song

In a cupboard or a freezer,

Saving food to taste just fine,

Need to keep you ‘fore I eat you,

Make you last a longer time.

Oh it’s yummy in my tummy,

Keep it yummy, food of mine!

Don’t be lost and gone forever

Keep it yummy, food of mine!

Keeping ice-cream in the freezer,

Ready meals and frozen veg,

Make leftovers last forever,

Extra meat and extra bread.

Oh it’s yummy in my tummy,

Keep it yummy, food of mine!

Don’t be lost and gone forever

Keep it yummy, food of mine!

In the fridge, put all the dairy,

Fruits and veg stay crisp and fine,

In the bottom, meats and fishes,

Keep in packs ‘til dinner time.

Oh it’s yummy in my tummy,

Keep it yummy, food of mine!

Don’t be lost and gone forever

Keep it yummy, food of mine!

Now we can stock the store cupboard,

Bread, jars, tins go on shelves,

Tatties and onion in the dark,

Bananas must stay by themselves.

Oh it’s yummy in my tummy,

Keep it yummy, food of mine!

Don’t be lost and gone forever!

Keep it yummy, food of mine!
