Am I likely to get food poisoning?????

OK....you know the cooked chickens that you buy hot from the likes of Tesco and Morrisons etc?

How long do you think you could keep one for?

I bought two, two or three days ago and only needed one. The other was left in it's bag and put in the fridge (when it had cooled). I just remembered about it today. :D

Still ok to eat...or bin material?

It smells ok I think.

    It should be OK, I'd eat it today though. Or bung it in the freezer but make sure you eat it on the day it's defrosted.

    I just had to reply to this because I don't have a chicken in my fridge and I thought "WOOO HOOO, I'VE FOUND A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME AND ALIASOJO" :rotfl:

    I would probably eat it, and certainly my husband would. We've eaten these when they have been 2 days old before and were fine.

    If you are cooking it with something else make sure that it is cooked thoroughly.

    I was just about to ask...

    ....grapes or a bottle of squash? :D
    Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...
