I forgot them last year and they're still in the freezer. Will they be ok to use?

Cooked or uncooked? Were they frozen when you bought them? I imagine they'd be fine but it always seems to say use meat you've frozen yourself within three months.

Vote for no here...

Uncooked and they were frozen when I bought them.

If they were frozen when you bought them and they are within the use by date then they are fine, if they are not then they are not. Simples.

Noooooo!

Akiram · 24/12/2011 13:51

In that case I wouldn't, but DH would Xmas Grin

VivaLeBeaver · 24/12/2011 14:23

Maybe I'll give them to the dog then. Grin

My DH would whereas I would chuck them

Molehillmountain · 24/12/2011 16:09

I'd have to say no then-but if it's best before them you could risk them on the dog!

We are dead poor (sort of) but would still give that a skip. Ew!

No, freezing does not stop bacterial growth, it just slows it down.

Do you want to spend boxing day throwing up?

VivaLeBeaver · 24/12/2011 20:25

Theyre in the bin. Grin

I've been convinced.

No I def wouldn't use them, I froze bacon for about eight months and it tasted vile when I cooked it, it stunk the house out and the bit i did dare to try tasted like fish
