frostarchive
/ˈfrɒstˌɑːkaɪv/nounVerified NewThe freezer compartment where unlabeled food goes to become permanent.
Everything frozen was meant to be eaten "within a month", and the frostarchive is where that promise is stored indefinitely. Its contents are known only by shape — the brick of unidentified stew, the tub of something that is no longer ice cream. Defrosting day is archaeology with a compost bag.
Etym. — frost + archive — preservation without retrieval, a collection indexed by rime.
