How long? 2 weeks, a month before deciding to throw it away.

Even after a year [Hyperbole] I still use it, as long as it's frozen.
I usually put the soup in the freezer a day after I prepared it, and it stays there for as long as whenever. No side effects.

after a week i suggest u throw it away.

yeah right!!! lai lai i no chop

After a week, throw what away? You must be kidding. Na so you wan waste the food I prepared with my hard-earned money and precious time?

On a serious note, since it's frozen, It can stay in the freezer for however long and would still be good for consumption. 

freezing the food doesnt kill the bacteria inside- it only reduces its activity - so please dont think freezing the food will keep it forever fresh, xcept ofcourse ur freezer runs on liquid nitrogen

Freezing to 0 °F inactivates any microbes — bacteria, yeasts and molds — present in food

Frozen food is safe, regardless of the amount of time it's been in the freezer.
Freezing preserves food for extended periods because it prevents the growth of microorganisms that cause both food spoilage and foodborne illness.
However, freshness and quality may 'reduce' but food remains SAFE!

I found this online:

Note: Freezer storage is for quality only. Frozen foods remain safe indefinitely.

@ Topic If possible make your soup in small quantity so that it will not stay too long in the freezer

I suggest after two weeks the taste will change and it is not even healthy that is how people get cancer preserving food till thy kingdom come.

Lmao! I thought I had heard it all.
Frozen food causes cancerrrrrrrrrrr?

Frozen also causes bad breath, malaria, schizophrenia. . . .

Seriously nothing worth eatin can be preserved indefinitely

Missy B, after a year? I know you were sarcastic here lol. I think 3 weeks at most for the taste to still be there? or less.

I noticed that sometimes and sometimes too for more than 2 weeks the taste is still there.

eeeewww!!! remind me not to eat ogbonno or okro in ur crib.

all those posting 12 months storage sure don't live in an area where nepa is in charge.

...

@George_D I understand you, even here in America frozen food have expiration date and goes to the garbage after the date is being expired for people who eats it bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was watching Oprah's show one day and this woman has packs of frozen food in her fridge stored since decade the man interviewing her said to her do yo know that you are shortening the life span of your kids? and most frozen food are preserved with high sodium(salt).

rubi,
you just expressed one of my worries: the health effects of overpreservation on people.


chaircover,
me i no fear at all o! just send me flight ticket and i will be at the door of your house fiam!
i sure won't mind coming to eat that sweet amala and ogono with you! 

generally i consider food edible as long as it tastes/smells/looks normal.

i rarely store cooked food in the freezer cos i mostly cook one meal at a time. but on the few occasions that i freeze cooked food, i consider them edible (and fresh) until whenever i eat them.

what i store forever is raw food, particularly chicken/meat. i almost always cook them after the expiry date. i've frozen meat, chicken & fish for up to 3 months, they smelled, looked & tasted normal afterwards. sometimes i store them in the fridge, and after a week or 2 they start to spoil.

I think 1 month is ideal.

This is why I cant eat at people house I am afraid they r going to serve me 3 month old soup. Yuck! Dont usually freeze my soup except egusi and coco yam soup. I like to precook meat and freeze them but, I usually cook what I can eat whatever is left over doesn't last more than a week and anything left over afterward goes to the trash.

^^ your chart doesn't apply in naija for now, esp wen you consider power-cuts

I dont live in Naija so the food charts apply to me 

So my Ogbonna is safe for you to eat

best i can do is a week. there's even an okra soup right now in my freezer that will end up in the trash bin. i cant stand storing food for long durations, i bow for those people who eat such. . . iyama

If I were in Naija, I would throw the soup away after 1 week too. So, you're right!

if it tastes ok, why throw it away?
