Snow is white because of the air between the crystals, as is Ice when frozen. If you freeze boiled water (and freeze it as soon as possible) it is completely transparent.

I thought everyone knew this? :confused:

Nope. Only those who boil a kettle and then freeze it as soon as possible.....:p

PS. How often do you do this? Is it becoming an OCD problem for you?

I know in America they have been known to wash the chicken carcasses in a solution based on Sodium Chloride or bleach. I know it was still banned in the European zone in 2008 but it looked like it would be lifted.

To be honest I only buy fresh meat that I can look at and smell.

The problem with Iceland is that it's business is built around supplying processed food, frozen - there's loads of crap in it :(

Saying that, I'd bet if you compared like for like Tesco v Iceland - I'd wager on Tesco being of poorer quality. The quality of their food these days is atrocious.
