A few years ago, a gourmet club in NYC dined on Woolly Mammoth -- one whose corpse had been frozen in Siberia since the last Ice Age. No health problems -- and no commentary on how it tasted either :}
Uh, no that is a myth. No one in modern times have eaten Wooly Mammoth meat.

What are the disadvantages of freezing food?
It doesn't taste quite as good as when fresh.Briefly they would be: Freezer burn, which is a dehydration that occurs when something is not properly covered/sealed in the freezer. Then the taste can be altered or lessened by the freezing process, again if improperly sealed - the food can lose flavor or pick up flavors from other things in the freezer. Consistency - many vegetables will be very soft/mushy when they are thawed after freezing. Finally, freezing costs money/energy to continue.
