Urgent! Steak opened in fridge three days - ok??

[DocusDiplo]

Hi! I used steak 72 hrs ago and it's been in the fridge since. Is it OK to use??? Google isn't helping! M&S packaging says use immediately.
Seem ok! Will do it well done!
Any thoughts!?

Thanks

If it smells fine is absolutely use it.

If you’re going to cook it well done, you may as well fuck it in the bin now and save the electricity.

What do you mean you used it 3 days ago? What sort of meat is it?
If you think about the butchers - they have opened meat out for days.

Haha..OK I chickened out and threw it away. I'd used 2 steaks and two were left. Nevermind, children don't need to eat daily , do they.
Thank you.

If you used it how can it be in the fridge? What did you use it for?

Oh I see, sorry, you had opened it

Crikey... Urgent?

We have hugely different opinions of what urgent means, especially as it was so urgent you can waste good food.

You threw it away?

Stored in the fridge it would've been perfectly OK to eat.

Why did you throw it away? It was in the fridge.

How can you earn enough money to buy steaks from M&S (and throw them away) and understand so little about food hygiene?

You threw away steak that had been opened 3 days!?

What an absolute waste of food

I'd have eaten it. You can normally tell by the smell.

So why did you bother posting?

Hahaha why are some of you so .. aggressive? I wrote urgent because it was a dilemma I wanted an answer for so I could cook dinner.

I went to M&S because I had to return something there and was having guests so treated us to something nice and easy to cook and save a trip to another supermarket.

I don't know much about food hygiene because I generally buy from a supermarket and use an opened packet within a day or freeze it. I also rarely cook steak. I also have a job that is of an average pay!

Furthermore, I threw it away as when I smelt it a second time, I wasn't sure if it smelt bad or if I was paranoid. I threw it away as I didn't want to risk stomach aches for my child. I didn't think. £4 or whatever was worth days off school.

Do any other people have any other questions for me???

Sheesh! Thanks for help. And sorry for the silly post - I did try googling for ages and appreciated the input .

Goodnight!
