What does it mean if the frozen food bags in your freezer all of the sudden expand with air in them does that mean the food in the bags have gone bad I bought frozen broccoli and it is now full of a?

It is probably the case that your frozen food bag has small holes in it which have allowed air into the bag. A hole, or holes, too small for you to see could cause this, and could occur between the time you take the package from the supermarket freezer and the time you put it into your own freezer. Careful handling, including keeping the bag separate from other groceries - using a supermarket cool-bag for frozen and cold foods only is a good idea - can help to avoid this.

Squeeze the air out and put the bag into another freezer bag, twist it closed, seal it well and return it to the freezer. If your food was okay when it was placed in the freezer it shouldn't have gone bad as such but if it's been in prolonged contact with air it could suffer freezer-burn, which can cause it to be unappetising in appearance and flavour.
