Can you eat chicken frozen for two years?

Yes, you can safely eat chicken that's been in the freezer for two years. (without saying, lets hope this freezer is still running...) it just may be a little dry and not as flavorful.


Also, you can also freeze pancakes for later use, something I knew but don't do.... Just arrange the pancakes between layers of wax paper, tightly wrap in aluminum foil or freezer bag. Reheat in microwave, uncovered, for 1 to 1 1/2 mins or until heated through.

All this and more at www.stilltasty.com/. Visit the site as there's numerous questions you may have that are answered for you; such as:
How long can you keep thawed ground beef? (Duh, until it has the odor of a corpse found after three days inside a house or vehicle isn't the answer; an odor I've experienced and cannot forget.) Do we have to refrigerate ketchup and mustard once opened? Is bottled water safe to drink after the expiration date? (I knew this! I knew this!) How to tell if a watermelon is ripe? (I thought I knew this; "thunking" isn't mentioned)
Bon apetite, all.

I hate websites that give you permission to tell me that it is okay to eat something after the expiration date. I'll have to go check it out.

O.K. I went to the website. Now I can't wait for watermelon season to try it out! My favorite fruit, and to think,I've been thunking all these years!

I'd like to hear more about this corpse that you found...

Emily, which one? I lost count. And, I didn't really "find" them, more of a call/investigating suspcious circumstances each time.
