Would you eat this?

[Bringonthemushrooms]

I made homemade chilli last Friday. Had a portion left so put it in the fridge intending to eat it but forgot. Do you think if it was heated really well it could be eaten tonight? I say no husband says yes??

Not worth risking it for me

I wouldn’t risk it unless you would like to spend the weekend in the bathroom.

Smell it then taste it and see.
I thunk supermarket ready meals can have a similar refrigerated life.

No, it's a week old meat. I really wouldn't. It's probably fizzing by now!

Let him eat it then.

I think if it's really hot all the way through,it'll probably be ok if he has a robust constitution, but I wouldn't eat it.

Last Friday is too long, and I'm fairly relaxed about that sort of thing. Four days, five at the absolute max, seven - too long.

A week? No. That’s too long.

No way.
Your dh can make his own choice - I often think the optimists have cast iron stomachs anyhow, and those of us who are more pessimistic have had experience of hugging loo bowls half the night.

I'm really relaxed about that sort of thing but a whole week?

No way.

I’m in the “no” camp.

Meat or veg? Meat, then I'd smell it, nuke it and try. Veg chilli will be fine.

Ugh, no. 3 days, tops.

I’m an absolute minger and I wouldn’t eat that

A week is definitely to long for mince, but if it's veg/beans then it might be ok if it passes the smell test.

No. 3 days max

I'm really lax about these things - and I would bin it!

Yuck.

My dog wouldn't eat that.

Meat or veg? Meat, then I'd smell it, nuke it and try. Veg chilli will be fine
Veg chilli would be revolting after a week

Hell no, that’s a whole week ago!

No. Don’t risk it.

No way- after 2 days of sitting in the fridge I wouldn’t risk it let alone a week!

A whole week seems a bit too long but to be fair many similar supermarket ready meals have a week plus date on them

Day three is the latest in our house.
