Aldi frozen soya mince - reheating??

Hi, I'm making a veggie lasagne, which I've made many times before, but first time using Aldi frozen plant-based mince. I usually make a double quantity and freeze one but have just noticed on the packet that is says "do not reheat". Does anyone know if this is specific to the Aldi brand? Can I ignore and just go ahead? Any time I've used soya mince (most for bolognese type stuff) I try to make in advance to let the flavours develop a bit and then reheat. The lasagne is for guests later this evening and I don't want to make them ill! Anyone got any clue why no reheating? TIA

I've reheated it several times, batch cooked things like chili and honestly I never even read the packet and saw that!! And we have always been just fine.

No idea why it would be a problem.

Thanks @WeirdPookah The DC will be especially glad to hear that because they were on course to eat cold leftover lasagne tomorrow! It's weird though, right? I'd never normally look at the packet either. I only read it this time because it was a new brand to me. Aldi do have form for this sort of oddness, which is why I questioned it. At the start of December, in the Christmas chiller section, they sell huge packs of smoked salmon for a reasonable price. Except in the small print it says you can't freeze it. So no good at all if you are buying it for Christmas fare. Anyway, I digress. Thanks for replying!
