If the meat is on a great sale, I ask for frozen packages. Once, my friend and I bought chicken in the boxes as they came into the store and took them home, still frozen, and stuck them straight into our freezers.

I usually have frozen cooked sausages in the freezer for just these types of occasions, when everything goes pear shaped. Easy to grab a few out, defrost and heat up quickly.<br />AhlyiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122163157306498894.post-75034756173542606292018-05-10T10:56:26.228+10:002018-05-10T10:56:26.228+10:00I had no idea about the chicken vouchers.

She offered me some that were in the window that had come out of their freezer and were semi-defrosted. She got very argumentative when I said that I didn't want them, since I wanted to pop them in the freezer as soon I got home. As she couldn't see the problem, I decided to take my money elsewhere!

We bought some frozen fish on sale and when we thawed it out, we almost got sick from the smell!!! I tried to get my dad to take it back to the store, but he wouldn't. He tried to feed it to his dog, who wouldn't eat it!!!!!! My dad.... he's a special case. :-)Little Penpenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01374048900216199298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122163157306498894.post-17403772948746077942018-05-09T20:16:42.012+10:002018-05-09T20:16:42.012+10:00I had the same thought on Tuesday, I had bought th...I had the same thought on Tuesday, I had bought the same brand but of salmon marked down at Coles. I decided to eat it the same night, totally delicious. I often buy markdowns with the intentions of freezing and do look for do not freeze labels, fish being the riskiest. Hope you have better luck next time.

I often eat things way past their use by date, and we've never been sick, there is probably minimal risk, they likely have to put that on the label for legal reasons. Anyway it was obviously annoying, I hope you get a refund. Agreed the writing should be in large print.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07900993246451486017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122163157306498894.post-46465574800010669442018-05-09T16:00:10.821+10:002018-05-09T16:00:10.821+10:00Wendy I had no clue to look for that on the label....Wendy I had no clue to look for that on the label.

And so I waited to see if Hubby and DS15 would get sick, nothing. <br />I’m not advocating that it’s okay to refreeze and eat , but that the print needs to be more visible. <br /><br />Hope the steak was yummy, xxx<br />Maureen Maureennoreply@blogger.com
