Can you get frostbite from handling frozen foods?


I'm talking about house frozen foods. I was wondering if I need to wear gloves when handling it. I only take the food from the garage freezer to the kitchen, but it still feels cold on my fingers.

Well there WAS ice frozen onto the box, would that make a difference?

No you can not the reason that you're fingers are cold is because the coldness still attacks you're nerves and it may feel numb but it takes a lot more to get frostbite. If you work in a freezer handling ice cream for a long period of time you just maybe might get it on you're fingers if you do not ware gloves but very minor frostbite

Now if you had bad frostbite to the point where you almost get it cut off then you get frostbite real easy but not from freezer to kitchen.

No. That is physically impossible. you would have to hold the frozen food for many hours and by that time it would have all thawed out.

no

No, but dry ice can.

Depends where you live. Wink.

It is possible to get frostbite from handling frozen foods. Usually it would take a little longer than from the garage to the kitchen, but if in doubt, gloves are a good precaution.
