Although I am fairly anal about tossing old food, I occasionally run into some furry leftovers buried in the fridge. Most of it is in Tupperware or some other container and although it would work just fine, labeling a piece of tape and sticking it on is too much work.
A company named Timestrip looks to take advantage of the situation (and my laziness) and developed a time strip that automatically adjusts to display the amount of time your old spaghetti has been sitting there.
Timestrips® are single-use, disposable, smart-labels, which automatically monitor lapsed time, ranging from under 1 day to 6 months.
The technology behind the revolutionary Timestrip® works by capillary action, allowing a tinted liquid to migrate through a micro-porous material at a consistent rate.
