California state taxes are among the worst in the country, according to the Tax Foundation, a non-partisan, non-profit research group in Washington D.C. The state has the highest state-level sales tax rate in the nation at 7.5 percent, although this is slated to drop to 7.3 percent at the end of 2016. Combined with local sales taxes, the rate can reach as high as 10 percent in some California cities. The state also has some of the highest income tax rates in the country.
The FDA advises that you should keep the temperature of your fridge between 32 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit, preferably right in the middle of that range, at, say, 35 degrees. Set the temperature at 35, and you avoid the risk of frozen food (thatâs what the freezerâs for!) and you avoid the risk of spoilage.
Recommended temperature for your fridge-freezer all year-round You should keep your fridge temperature set at 3Â°C/37.4F and your freezer set at -19Â°C/-2.2F (or -18Â°C/-0.4F, depending on your model) all year-round. Recommendations for positioning your fridge-freezer Ensure that your fridge-freezer is situated at least 5 cm from walls on both sides and 10 cm from the wall at the rear.
