How to understand that the meat has gone bad: 3 useful life hacks
Meat is not a product that can be stored in the freezer indefinitely. To determine whether it has spoiled, SSPDaily has told you about three key signs to look for without relying on the expiration date or label.
Color
Pork should be pink and beef should be dark red. In addition, the bones and joints should be white. If the meat is evenly colored, it is safe to eat. However, if you notice white, pink, or gray areas on the meat, it means that it is weathered and no longer suitable for consumption.
Odor
Not all spoiled meat will have a strong, putrid odor, but it can vary. Fresh meat usually has a faint odor, sometimes reminiscent of milk. If you smell any other unpleasant odors or impurities, it is advisable to refrain from buying or consuming it.
Density
Fresh meat usually has a dense structure. By gently pressing the meat with your finger and watching how quickly the pressure recovers, you can determine its condition. If the meat is sticky or not elastic, it means that it has spoiled and should not be eaten.
