Yes. There is a rumor that freezing and refreezing meat products is unsafe.

The truth is, freezing will stop the growth of bacteria. Refreezing any food, however,

will tend to soften the texture because the process of freezing causes the water

inside the food to expand, thereby tearing the solid tissue. It is perfectly safe to refreeze your bologna, as long as it is still worth saving. It may, however, end up a

little bit more tender, which might be a good idea for some tougher cuts of meat.
