Advertising "Who do you think you're fooling?"
March 30, 2018 at 1:02 pm
Ok, today I went shopping, and I just noticed buying the bag of generic store brand frozen chicken wings, not vacuum sealed, on the bag it said, "Glazed in ice to insure freshness".......
OH BULLSHIT, that really means, "We still want you to buy this even if it has freezer burn."
No, I am not saying one should never buy frozen anything, that is fine, I do it all the time. But don't try to blow smoke up my ass.
You can tell with clear packaging when something is simply frozen, and when it gets fuzzy ice, which means it is been on the shelf for too long. Everyone knows what frozen is.

Ice glazing is actually a thing. It helps protect against freezer burn.

Did you know they also pump carbon monoxide into meats to subdue the population. I haven't eaten supermarket meat in years. Don't let them get you.

Ice actually does provide a protective layer for tissues, both plant and animal. This is why farmers will often water winter crops just before a freeze - the ice keeps the plants at 0 deg (damage to the tissue- freezer burn - only occurs below freezing).

What I do in the privacy of my own home outside your view is none of your business. 
If you have live chickens in your home you've got bigger problems than freezer burn.
