• DO NOTrefreezefrozen foods which have thawed completely.
The United States Department ofAgriculture in Home and
Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:
"...Youmay safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if
they still contain icecrystals or if they are still coldbelow
40°F (4°C).''
"...Thawed groundmeats, poultry,or fish that have any off-odor
or off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten.
Thawed ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of
anyfood is poor or questionable, get rid of it. Thefood may be
dangerous to eat."
"Even partial thawingand refreezing reduces the eating quality
offoods, particularly fruits, vegetables and prepared foods.
The eating quality of red meats is affected less than that of
many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible to
save as much of their quality as you can."
