Question on the Spicy Pineapple Rum Sauce

[SpiritdancerIA]

I got my SAT package today, including the Spicy Pineapple Rum Sauce. The problem? Well, it's pretty cold here, and the sauce appears to have frozen solid

Does anyone know how the freeze/thaw cycle might effect the sauce? Would it still be safe to use? I thought I might get some answers here while waiting on a callback from HO

It's frozen? Mine came today really cold. The sauce is really thick. I would just leave it thaw out room temp.

Well, it was 7F outside as the driver handed the box to me. When I opened everything up, the bottle was actually a bit frosty (not to mention uncomfortable cold!), and the sauce didn't budge at all when I moved the bottle around (including upside down). It looked pretty frozen to me (and it does seem to be a bit more "liquid" now it's been out of the box for an hour or so).

It's more of a chutney consistency than a sauce, so I wouldn't worry about it.

I don't think there would be any problem with letting it thaw and tasting it. It's not an animal product (to my knowledge), and I think it would be the same thing as letting salsa freeze and thaw.
