Thermal Properties of Food? Cooling Requirements of Food in DTU/s?

[Overheal]

I was looking at Professoroakshell and noticed in the cooling calculator there was no listing for food

I also noticed the wiki.gg lacks any information about the heat capacity or thermal conductivity of food

But, we know that food has to have these properties, otherwise it wouldn't cool or freeze or take on heat

So, what are these values? I was trying to determine cooling requirements for food, such as for example if the liquid CO2 geyser (150g/s @-55 C) would be sufficient to use as an early game deep freezer coolant, etc., does it need to be handled as gaseous CO2 and is it even coming out at a sufficient rate to deep freeze the average flow of a base's food (let's say, 12 dupes 800 kCal of food/cycle each, cooked at 95 C)

all food is made from genetic ooze

Generally, food production is low-mass enough that it hardly matters. At least that is my experience.

Each food item is 1kg of genetic ooze, meaning it needs 3.47 kDTU to cool/heat to 1C.Thats really low amount. However CO2 is bad conductor so it will take some time to actually cool something. Metal tile will help a lot with that

Also food is considered deep frozen when its temperature or the temperature of the atmosphere is -18C or colder. My colony has a lot of 70° "deep frozen" food.
