Important Note on White Frosting / Freezer Burn Marks
White frosting, ice crystal marks, or freezer burn marks are commonly found on the surface of this chicken product. This is a natural phenomenon common in frozen chicken and does not necessarily indicate spoilage.
| Situation |
Description |
| White marks on the surface |
White frosting, ice crystal marks, or freezer burn marks may appear on the chicken surface, which is common for frozen chicken |
| Why it occurs |
Because this product is not covered with a large amount of sprayed water, ice glaze, or water film on the chicken surface, freezer burn marks are more likely to appear during freezing |
| Does it mean spoilage? |
Under normal circumstances, white freezer burn marks do not indicate that the chicken has spoiled or is unsafe |
| Reflects product characteristics |
White freezer burn marks can be understood as the product not having additional water added to increase surface weight, meaning the weight is closer to the actual chicken meat |
| Not water-injected for weight gain |
This product does not rely on additional spraying or ice glazing to increase weight; the weight received by customers is closer to the actual meat itself |
| After thawing |
The white marks usually fade after thawing, and it is safe to eat after thorough cooking |
| Effect on cooking |
After normal thawing and thorough cooking, it generally does not affect daily consumption |
