Bacon from the deli...

[Catastrophic]

I wouldnt.

[Trillian]

yeah two weeks is probably a little too long.

[saslia]

Depends if it is slimy or smelly. I quite often have bacon in the fridge for that long.

[helle]

three days would be my limit... unless it's crivacced (sp?)

[Samcougar]

I work in a deli and you should throw it out, Usually it should be used in about 4 days for small goods. 3 for shaved and sliced meats.

[[M]umma[M]ia]

Nah 2 weeks is too long. 3 days max here.

Thanks all!

I think I'll chuck it out then... I have some more in the freezer anyway!
It is my fault for the wastage.
Hubby bought it and you got it on massive special if you bought a kilo so I should have divided it up into smaller portions and put it in the freezer and I didn't!! SIGH!!

oh the thought of 2 week old bacon is making my stomach churn Sorry! Preg hormones!

Two weeks is probably a bit long, if it was cured the old fashioned way - when they had to keep meat without refridgeration, it probably would be ok. But today's curing methods are not the same.
