    Your sense of smell is usually the best judge of what's off & what's not (not for curry or spicy food though) :D. Then it's a case of making sure any previously cooked foods are fully cooked through.

    Unfortunatly I don't have a good sense of smell, it is a pain in the neck at times.

    I would ask DH to sniff it but he won't. His reaction would be " it's been there a week it has to be binned". He is not very money saving <rolls eyes>

    I wouldn't risk it with any meat after a week, especially pork.

    the perfect way to give everybody serious food poisoning!

    I only ever keep cooked meat 3 days and that includes the day I cooked it

    Agreed - 4 days is my absolute limit IF it has been cooled quickly and at the back of the fridge (where its coldest).

    Chuck it in the bin :)

    NO - dont do it! not with any meat after a week in the fridge! and especially pork! ask yourself - if you found out a restaurant had served you week old leftovers...........would you be happy about it?

    No way would I feed something I was so unsure of to my kids. And more so if I wasn't even planning on taking the risk myself. Sorry, but I'd bin it without even sniffing it.

    I wouldn't eat it either. I have had food poisoning and it is not something I would want to repeat or chance giving to my kids.
