Sales tax holidays in the United States. In New York, a statewide sales tax holiday was first enacted by the New York legislature in 1996, enabling the first tax-free week in January 1997. Local governments in New York were given the option of whether or not to participate; most declined. Since then, the initiative has been adopted by thirteen states.
Refreezing food is not dangerous, the danger is that food can spoil before itâs refrozen or after itâs thawed again before being cooked and eaten. Freezing food does not kill bacteria, so once thawed bacteria continues to multiple at the same exponential rate it was multiplying at before being frozen.
The U. S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA) advises: Once food is thawed in the refrigerator, it is safe to refreeze it without cooking, although there may be a loss of quality due to the moisture lost through thawing.After cooking raw foods which were previously frozen, it is safe to freeze the cooked foods.o not refreeze any foods left outside the refrigerator longer than 2 hours; 1 hour in temperatures above 90 Â°F. If you purchase previously frozen meat, poultry or fish at a retail store, you can refreeze if it has been handled properly, according to USDA.
