Is my chicken still good?!
I froze some breasts in zip lock bags, I guess there was air in this one and there is ice on the inside of the bag on the chicken!. Quite a bit!. I'm pregnant and don't want to take chances!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's still good!. If any part of it looks freezer burned trim it off after it thaws and it will taste fine!. Next time you freeze some chicken, or anything else, first wrap it in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil, then seal in a ziplock, it will be as good as fresh for several months!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
It depends on how long ago you froze it!. The freezer burn won't hurt you, it just won't taste good!. Usually just having ice doesn't necessarily mean that it is freezer burned!. If it looks strangely dried (while still frozen) that is freezer burn!. Let it thaw and if it smell funky or is slimy, throw it away!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
Yah, its plenty good to eat, the Only thing you need to worry about would be leaving it thawed for a while, no Bactria can accumulate while its frozen and ice isn't bad!. The only thing that ice gives foods is freezer burn but that can't get you sick!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I wouldn't take chances!. I don't know exactly what you should do, but if I were you, I wouldn't eat it!. Especially since you are pregnant!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
