英语时差：如何保存肉类？2

If the uncooked meat is refrozen these new bacteria are put into suspended animation along with their living ancestors. This means that when the meat is rethawed there are not only the parents and their offspring, but the “grandkids,” “great-grandkids,” and so on, all reproducing faster than the proverbial rabbits. In other words, there are many more generations of bacteria to cause illness. By refreezing uncooked meat we increase the odds of becoming sick from eating it because we give harmful bacteria more chances to reproduce and thrive. So if you can’t cook it soon, throw it away, or give it to the dog, who is not as sensitive to those bacteria.
