States Department of Agriculture recommends: “…You may safely refreeze
frozen foods that have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are
still cold-below 40˚F”.
“…Thawed ground meats, 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 any food is poor or
questionable, discard it. The food may be dangerous to eat.”
“…Even partial thawing and re-freezing reduce the consumption quality of
foods, particularly fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. The consumption
quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use
