Signs frozen fruits has gone bad
- Heavy freezer burn (dry, greyish, leathery patches) — safe but poor quality.
- Off smell or odd texture after thawing.
- Signs the item thawed and refroze (ice crystals, a solid block).
When in doubt, throw it out — the cost of a spoiled meal isn't worth the risk.
Best way to store frozen fruits
Keep your freezer at or below 0 °F (−18 °C). Wrap items airtight to avoid freezer burn and label them with the date. Thaw in the fridge, and don't refreeze food that has fully thawed.
