Frozen food thawed?

[Eke121]

I picked up some frozen pot stickers and noticed the box was dripping water by the time I checked out (only 3 minutes after I took it out of the freezer). I brought it home and the box was soggy, but I still ate some as part of my CBT. Of course now I'm regretting it.

Typing it out makes me feel silly, but these are probably fine, right?

Totally fine this happens to me all the time.. my car has no air conditioning and by the time i get home from grocery shopping, almost everything is trying to defrost. It is definitely still good though..i always worry when it comes to meats, but it always turns out being okay! no worries

Well, probably yes. I'd be more worried about food that had been obviously thawed and refrozen because once food is thawed you're not supposed to re-freeze it... so I guess if you cooked them right away, it shouldn't be "dangerous". Because they would have remained cold if part of them were still frozen. I mean, I bring frozen lunches at school all the time (I freeze leftovers for my lunches so I always have real food on hand) and they thaw during the morning and are always half-thawed by lunch but still cool and I never got sick from that. But I'd be careful with checking to make sure the packages are not soggy when buying from the store if you don't plan on eating it right away.
