Why freezer burn matters, and how to avoid it Naturally, I decided to consult a pro to tackle freezer burn so I called up Jananne Finck, a nutrition and wellness educator at the University of Illinois Extension. Finck, who teaches Master Food Preserver classes, said that freezer burn is the result of air being pulled out of the tissues of food. “Basically, it’s moisture loss,” she said. The good news is that freezer burn doesn’t cause illness. The bad news is that freezer-burned food — which often looks whitish and a bit shriveled — tastes “off,” and makes the texture dry and tough. Finck also explained that freezer burn is caused by either keeping food in the freezer too long or by using poor-quality packaging.
