PERISHABLE FOOD ITEMS... Does anyone have any experience shipping food overnite?

I live in another part of the state and my family often wants me to ship them some of my dishes that I make... ie. Tamales.... I wanted to know how to do this overnite.... they are already frozen so... do I put them in an insulated bag and then a styrofoam cooler with "hot ice" and secure it accordingly and ship it via fedx? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

A better way is to get those gel packs that they sell and put them in with the food. What I'm talking about is "Blue Ice" or sometimes they are in bags. Essentially, you put them in the freezer and they are meant to go into a cooler for picnics.

Put your food in a large sealed plastic bag, place the ice packs on top, cover in styrofoam, box, and ship overnight. We do this sometimes at work with vaccines, and it works well. So, it should also work well with food items.

My daughter sent me a frozen tiramisu A bakery near her makes a Tiramisu to die for, but that's 750 miles away from me! Tiramisu is at least 1/2 whipped cream, so if it had thawed, it would have been a disaster. She packed it in a corrugated cardboard box which she had lined with sheets of styrofoam.

Then she surrounded it with a layer of those blue freezer ice pack thingies. She shipped it FedEx overnight and it arrived just fine. I have also ordered frozen meals from some on-line gourmet meal vendors.

The food usually arrives in a styrofoam cooler inside of a cardboard box with the freezer ice packs. Sometimes they have dry ice packs instead. This food always arrives still frozen solid.

I think if you do an insulated cooler with lots of ice packs inside a cardboard box and ship overnight, you’ll be fine. Remember you'll be paying to ship the weight of the freezer packs, so shipping could be quite pricey. In the case of the tiramisu, it cost more than the food!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
