      Dry Ice should be used as soon as bought or kept in a well insulated cooler. Dry Ice will "sublimate" at a rate of approximately 10 pounds every 24 hours. A 52 pound block is sufficient to keep food frozen, in a cooler, for about 6-7 days. You will need to purchase Dry Ice as close to when you plan to use it as possible, as Dry Ice will not keep. Dry Ice starts "sublimating" as soon as it's manufactured.
