Seems like something that is probably in the works somewhere, but I havn’t seen it anywhere.

If you have a fire/cooking implements, you shouldn’t have to starve until you can cook with new ingredients. I can’t see any valid reason to not be able to reheat food since the temperatures rework.

Might even be a good idea to increase the temp on tiles adjacent to fires, since apparently being in a 6/2 room adjacent to a fire is insufficient to thaw/keep food thawed in early spring mornings/nights

You can (a)pply a cooking tool like a frying pan or whatever to reheat food.

Exactly as Mantar said. You can just apply the cooking implement and defrost that way. You can even defrost drinks but keep them cold, which is definitely a pro.
