Explanation:

The infographic says "Refrigerate perishables (including meat) as soon as you get them home from the store." This directly supports the first option. The second option is wrong because perishables can't sit for two days on the counter (they need to be refrigerated quickly). The third option is wrong as the infographic emphasizes refrigerating perishables.

Answer:

Perishable food must be refrigerated as soon as you get home.
