Can frozen yogurt still be consumed?

Generally, if yogurt has been frozen for a short period of time, remains unspoiled, and is still within its expiration date, it is usually safe to consume. However, if it has been frozen for an extended period, shows signs of spoilage, or has passed its expiration date, it should not be consumed. The details are as follows:

If the yogurt has been frozen briefly, remains within its shelf life, and shows no signs of spoilage—such as unusual odor, color, or texture—it can typically be consumed after thawing. Although brief freezing may alter the yogurt's taste and texture, making it firmer or giving it a slushy consistency, it generally does not significantly affect its nutritional value. When thawing, allow the yogurt to melt naturally at room temperature or place it in the refrigerator for slow thawing to help restore its original texture.

If the yogurt has been frozen for too long, has expired, or shows signs of spoilage—such as foul odor, darkened color, or mold growth—it should not be consumed. Prolonged freezing may lead to nutrient loss, and certain bacteria can still grow at low temperatures, causing spoilage. Additionally, even if the yogurt is within its expiration date, if the packaging was damaged or improperly sealed during freezing, bacterial contamination may occur, making it unsafe to eat.

In daily life, it is recommended to maintain a positive mindset, avoid spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods, get adequate rest, and develop healthy lifestyle habits.
