I made some awesome arroz con gris (beans and rice) that I froze after cooking it. The only animal product it contains would be lard. Otherwise, it’s just rice, beans, garlic, onions, green bell peppers, olives, and herbs. I don’t remember how long ago I made it, but it could be anywhere from 6-12 months ago. It stayed frozen the whole time. If I thaw it in a pool of room temp water and warm it up on the stove, is it safe to eat?

It’s been a hard day and my brain ran out of thinking fuel. I can’t even google this rn. I appreciate any helpful responses.

Edit: Based on responses and the American federal government, it should be safe. My freezer is set to 0*F, so we’re having dinner tonight! If you see me posting a lot in the next few days, it’s cause I got hospitalized, and you’re all gonna pay for it with my shitposts from the hospital bed! 😋

    That’s supposed to happen if you refrigerate rice (ie leftovers)which I do all the time and eat no problem. It’s the freezing that doesn’t work.
