what happens if you eat meat that has been defrosted and then refrozen, and then de-frosted again?

you know how you hear that raw meat should not be frozen twice? what happens if you did and you ate it? is it just a myth? is it that it wouldn’t taste good or would it be bad for you in some way?

Well, I made that mistake a couple times without any horrible effects. (I think). But the google link above has better advice than that.
Salmonella. Makes you into a contortionist, trying to cope with diarrhea and vomiting simultaneously.
i had some uncooked chicken thawed at room temperature a few days ago, changed my mind about cooking and put it back in the freezer…i thawed the chicken today in a microwave, cooked, and ate it for dinner….i’ve been feeling a little nauseous for 2 hours now…i never knew this was bad practice!!
@ciku: Live and learn, I hope. But, as the Gastroenterologists are so fond of saying, thinking that it is funny, “This, too, shall pass.”
Hope you are feeling better. The body will purge itself (see @gcross above).
