I've read this somewhere but I've never gotten a straight answer as to why you should do this.

There is a bunch of left over crap in the water. It just adds to the pollution of your tank. Not sure if its just the water they use to package or what it is.

Try thawing food and dumping it in your tank, you can see the "cloud" before it mixes in. Then do the same thing after you rinse it. You will see why you should rinse it.
