A government bulletin conA cerning canned foods states that a slight breakdown of texture may occur in a few products, but otherwise a single freezing and thawing will not aflecl canned foods adversely. Some creamy foods may curdle and separate upon freezing, but heating usually restores the original consistency.

I have a friend who is cripQ. pled in one leg because of a severe attack of trichinosis many years ago. Her problem was traced back to a diner w here she ate a hamburger that was mixed with pork and was undercooked. She once confessed to me that her body still contains live worms as a result of this disease. I haven't got the courage to ask her, J.I1. but could they be catching? Stabiner A. Referring to material supplied by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, at one point in your friend's illness her system defended itself by attacking the worms that had invaded her body. In a manner of speaking, the threadlike worms were put in jail that is. the body enclosed them in protective capsules, or cysts. And there they remain, curled up. alive, but unable to be free to do harm. Strong acids, such as those found in ones stomach, could melt the capsules and free the worms. The only way you could catch" them would be to turn into a cannibal and eat her flesh, an unlikely prospect. Severe cases of trichinosis are rare, but it is thought that there are many mild attacks of the disease that go unreported. Consumers are cautioned again to always cook pork thoroughly, so that the meat is no longer pink. Please send any information Q.
