ok so I have nothing else whatso ever for dinner but this chicken.
How can I tell if it is off? It has a slight funny smell but I also hate the smell of raw meats. It does feel a touch slimy..
Was bought 2 days ago and has been in the fridge. Is chicken thigh fillets..
Otherwise kids will just have to wait till Dad gets home.. sigh.. 2 hours away still and they are hungry NOW
if it is whiffy and slimy I would steer clear....normally I would say it'd be ok only being 2 days old but I bought some last week that was off when I got it home :(
If it smells funny I would not use.
DH says I am very wasteful but better safe than sorry I say.
yeh safe then sorry is my motto especially with chicken..
might see if I can find something.. We have been away for 5 weeks and still haven't done the groceries lol..
I'm pretty picky when it comes to chicken, I agree with the other posters if it smells funny and is slimy chuck it!
..."When in doubt chuck it out" :thumbsup:
if in doubt throw it out!!
i could have asked the same thing too! i just bought some marylands from the butchers, when i got home and rebagged them they stunk :sick: i rang them and took them back!
I wouldn't be using it either...toasted sandwiches?? Thats all we are having tonight. Cheese & vegemite!
I agree, it shouldn't smell yucko. But if it has just a hint of a smell I would probably still use it and make sure I cooked it well and truly. But if you're not confident it's best to chuck it out, I guess.
Natty is having raisin toast for dinner tonight, LOL! (She had lunch at 2:30pm :redface:) And I'm just having pasta & veg with pesto...
your right all chicken in this house gets frozen asap dont take chances here.:
Well I decided to not use it. Thankfully cus when Dh got home he said yup its off.. but was ok I had some fozen fish in the fridge to feed the kids and we got sme KFC when Dh got home
