Default Can old thread be salvaged?

I have read two different opinions (facts?) about old thread. One says "toss it."

The other is what I am asking about. I think it said something like put it in a plastic bag in the fridge or freezer and it will be revitalized. Does anyone know anything about this method? Does it work? What exactly are you supposed to do with the thread? Does it restore the thread to anything like new?

Thanks for everyone's input. I have so much old thread and I hate to toss it all. I collect a certain kind of sewing caddy and every time I get one, it tends to have a few spools of thread, many never used.
