AKA The Freezer That Hasn't Been Defrosted Since The Last Ice Age!.!.!.Shared freezer, now no longer able to get food into/out of due to slabs of thick polar ice!. Have sent in penguins with icepicks: no use!. Suspect student chow may be entombed forever, like woolly mammoth!. Any ideas on how to defrost before we all (a) starve or (b) become stuck to the ice as we try and chisle the boxes etc!. out!? PS: One of our number is Vegetarian, and wants to ensure that no frozen meat products get mixed with their frozen veg!.!.!.help!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Empty the freezer, put all food in the sink (except vegetarian food(suggest the bin for that))!.
Turn the freezer off, take a wooden spoon and bash the worst of the ice off!. Try to catch the large pieces and put them in the sink with the food!. If you are fast, the food won't have defrosted and can go straight back into the freezer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

go to fishmongers, ask for some pack boxes, there polystyorene, put all the food in there, get 2 so you can keep seperate!. then just defrost!. add some ice to the boxes if you have to so it stays cold for longer!.
dont use a knife or anythink to scrape the ice out, you might pincture the walls of the fridge and then you will need a new fridge!. juse put a container with boiled water to sit in there so it defrosts quicker!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Remove everything from it that you can and wrap it in several layers of newspaper - put all wrapped items together in a bin bag (for example!) and leave in as cool-a-place as you can find!. Then pull the plug on the freezer!. You can place bowls of hot water inside and if you're really up for it, blow it with a hairdryer - but keep it moving!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Get a cooler with ice then unplug the whole thing!. Turn down the freezer and re frig!. temp!. Maybe use a hair dryer and start over!. Give it a day!. If it doesn't work then it's time to invest in a new one or your own mini freezer!. Just get fresh food daily!. You will meet more people that way!.
