Very old frozen chicken
 

I just found a couple of pounds of frozen chicken wings that are a
year and a half old. I was thinking of making some chicken soup from
them

1. Is this safe?

2. If it is safe, will it taste ok?

Thanks

Yes. Definitely. They could be 10 years old and still be safe.

Yes, if they were wrapped well enough and not badly freezer burned. If
they are freezer burned, they still might be OK for soup but not much else.

Smell them.
If they smell freezer burned, i'd make a soup out of them and pour it
over the dogs food after deboning it.

There is not much you can do to save them unless they were packaged
right.

I give freezer burned meat to my chickens... ;-)
