Hi All,

How long do you reckon it is safe to use bacon purchased from the deli?
I hate hate hate wasting food especially since we are flat broke at the moment.
I have some bacon in the fridge that is possibly about two weeks old. It has been kept in the fridge and kept quite cold the entire time we have had it so do you reckon it is still safe to use?

I was hoping to make a soup in the slow cooker tomorrow using a soup base pack my hubby bought on special for $2.70 yesterday (has carrot, celery, potato, parsnip, onion) with the bacon and some tinned beans and maybe a small pasta or couscous as well!

What do you think???
