We're becoming more and more aware of food safety, even in our own homes, and though we will never forget to scrub everything that has come into contact with fresh poultry and now, to wash all our produce, we should also remember that the safest way to thaw frozen meat is quickly. In other words, don't take out a couple of frozen T-bones in the morning and leave them on the counter all day.
According to Engadget, this Sharp refrigerator has a warming drawer that allows you to quickly thaw your frozen foods. However, we can't tell for sure because the original site is in Japanese. A few of the commenters on the Engadget post have tried to help with the translation, but if there's any one of our Slashfood readers who knows Japanese, let us know what we're missing!
Of course, if our interpretation of the what the fridge actually does is off, at least we were reminded to always quick-thaw our frozen meats!
