Forgot to close the crisper drawer and everything froze
I was rushing out the door yesterday morning and left the vegetable drawer open a crack. Came back from work in Portland to find my bell peppers and a block of cheddar rock solid. I can still use the cheese, but the peppers are ruined. What's the best way to salvage a fridge full of half-frozen food?

How frozen is "half-frozen," exactly?

Honestly, half-frozen usually means the top layer is solid ice but you can still slosh liquid underneath. Tbh you don't want to pour that into a cooler, it'll just melt everything else faster. If it's a drink, you gotta shake it real hard to break up the ice chunks before you open it. Otherwise it's gonna explode all over you when the pressure releases.
