Is she putting it in a plastic bag or something like that, or is she just putting it in there by itself?
Personally, we have put things like prawn heads in the freezer until garbage day so that the bin isn't really stinky. No-one has died so far!

Ye old Wal-Mart Sack.
We have VERY tight Trash Cans. No smell will escape it, no flies in summer.
We are trying to have fewer leftovers. But with Busy Schedules it gets hard.
The main issue isn't really that she's storing trash in the Freezer.
The issue is that she told me "But it will make the Trash Stink" in a sarcastic tone that woud require computer anaylsis to prove it wasn't her mother.
Despite being under orders to inform here if she ever became like her mother, I believe the Exact words were: "If I ever turn into my mother, shoot me"
I'm pretty sure the whole "Don't shoot the Messager" line would go right out the window.
We haven't stored Trash in the Freezer in the entire 6 years we've been married.
Then, last week, she tosses it in a Wal-Mart sack into the Freezer.
Which is what her mother does. I'm not sure why she did it.
I'm thinking she's just been under a lot of stress.
I do know if I sure a Web Article about how it's not the safest method of Food Disposal, she'll go "OK, let's just take it out. That's why we spent an extra 20 bucks on the Garbage can."
If I tell her "Remember when you told me to make sure you never turn into your mother? Well you are doing it right now." I'm not
sure what would happen, but I know a good deal of the alternatives are not pleasent.
Thank for that tip about Bacteria Growth still occuring in the Freezer! That should do it.
