Packaging of the meat has an effect on the quality as, for example, vacuum-packed meat will last longer and have little to no freezer burn. If not vacuum-packed, I suggest freezing meat in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, eliminating as much air as possible to avoid freezer burn.</DIV>

As long as your chicken was frozen while still fresh, and has been solidly frozen the entire 3 months, it is definitely safe to eat.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/4D937468-941D-45B3-8DDD-C9946BD55920/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
