David, from Scotland, asks about freezing sections.

I have held sections in the freezer for two years, thawed them, and could
not tell they were frozen.  While comb exposed to light will darken, it does
not change color in the darkness of the freezer.

It does not granulate 'fast', when removed from the freezer.  I guess I have
held it 6-8 months in a warm room after being frozen and it has not
granulated.

However, condensation will form if it is not protected from warm air while
it is thawing.  Just today I removed six 'show quality' sections from the
freezer and asked a co-worker to keep the sections in a box until tomorrow,
when they would have thawed.  Instead, they got removed this afternoon,
condensation formed to an extent that the labels were ruined...and the
sections are show quality no longer!

Hope this helps.
