I agree. Used to be able to buy 4lb of shrimp in blocks of ice. It would keep almost forever and taste nearly fresh upon melting. These newer packaging methods using flash freezing are already somewhat mummified right out of the market. Nowhere near the moisture and freshness. This also works for fish you catch yourself. Put in topless milk cartons full of water and freeze. The meat retains it's firmness and moisture. I never tried this with other than fish or seafood. I'm not sure it would work too well with herd animal flesh. Maybe.
