9. Do not refreeze foods that have been thawed completely. The
United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden
Bulletin No. 69 reads: “…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 eating quality of
foods, 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 its eating
quality as you can.”
