Can someone explain to me why all flash frozen, vacuum sealed bags say to remove them from the original bag before defrosting the item? Does maybe the layer of ice make the food soggier if it isn’t removed? It’s my only guess.

I’m not sure either but since the only other reply also isn’t sure I figured I’d post an alternate line of reasoning. I believe the presence of room temperature air reduces the time it takes for the item to defrost. Without a medium of something around it, the heat dispersal will be significantly slowed. Ideally you should strip it down to it’s innermost wrapping and then plunge into room temp/warm water to speed up the defrost period.
