My Asda shop arrived with our Christmas Turkey. It was meant to be fresh but about a quarter of it is frozen solid. I tried explaining to their customer service who can’t grasp my concern.
Am I right that I either have to freeze the whole thing now or it will go off if the part that is frozen is defrosted and sits in the fridge for 5 days. I thought you had to cook meat within 24hrs if it has defrosted??
I’ve 4 vulnerable adults to Christmas lunch and I’m frightened to chance it.
My other half who is a great cook but not so good on food hygiene / safety says it’ll be fine and thinks I’m nuts!!! AIBU to return the Turkey?

Why is it frozen? That's weird. I think you have to defrost the whole thing and cook it now.

I think the advice about defrosted meat is because it's frozen right before it expires.
