Yesterday I ate a kipper that went off on the 7th and had been open in the fridge for two days, it looked, smelled and tasted fine and i'm fine!

Hi Ladies
I have some beef still leftover from sunday. Will it be ok if i do it in the slowcooker as a stew or should I just chuck it?

Thank you!

If it's already cooked, there's no need to do it in the SC I often make mine into curry, just half an hour in a pan on the hob will be enough.

From a food safetly POV, 3 days is the usual advice, so as long as you've not kept it in the kitchen for ages, it should be fine, but please use your own common sense

Just thinking it may have gone abit tough - it was a tad over cooked to begin with. Was hoping a spell in the slow cooker might tender it abit?

If your in doubt - ditch it!! You dont want to spend the evening on the loo .......

As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the Food Safety thread

hi all

just about to make a chicken and mushroom pie with some pancetta thrown in.. when ive looked at the packet of pancetta and its use by date was yesterday..
it hasnt been opened or anything and has been in the fridge since i bought it.. do you think it will be ok to use??

Its a dried cured meat so I'd be okay using it if it was two or three days over. Chuck it in, you wont die I promise :T

I always use meat even if it's one or 2 days out of date, it should be fine!
