A process of determining if a foodstuff is fresh or has previously been frozen. The foodstuff is subjected to bioelectrical impedance analysis including measurement or calculation of values of resistance, reactance, impedance, capacitance, and/or phase angle. The results illustrate whether or not the foodstuff has been previously frozen or is fresh. Also provided is a process of selecting a preparation method, a packaging and shipping method, or disposition of a foodstuff. First determining a palatability value for the foodstuff. Second determining as a function of the determined palatability value whether or not the foodstuff is to be prepared for consumption, is to be packaged and shipped, or is to be disposed of.
