DH cooked dinner tonight and had some sausages on his plate along with dinner. I commented on how strong they smelled and asked where he got them. He laughed and said “from the bin”.
Last night I was checking the fridge and at the back found a pack of leek sausages dated April 1st...the pack had swelled right up and bubbles were oozing out the side, so I threw them out. These are what he’s just eaten!
Now he burping away and I can’t believe he’s that thick!
AIBU to make him sleep with a bucket tonight Angry

My mum's gardener once found a burger on her barbecue that had been there weeks, said, 'My stomach can't read' and ate it.

He was fine Confused

My mum's gardener once found a burger on her barbecue

I read that as a 'burglar on her barbecue' and thought it was a little extreme Grin

FFS sorry

Your DH must have iron guts!

CaptainBrickbeard · 07/04/2018 10:12

Turnip I read it the same way Grin.

My poor ds had salmonella when he was only a year old. It went on for weeks and his little bum was red raw.

Back to stupid dh finding sausages in the bin, not sure why people assume he had been rummaging? I often open the kitchen bin and glance at the top layer, thinking that "7 packets of crisps is 6 too many ds" (now a teen, I should add).

Rednailsandnaeknickers · 07/04/2018 10:29

I clicked on this thread thinking it would hopefully be a light hearted funny read over Saturday breakfast.
Shock
I've just given DH my sausages and said I'll stick with scrambled eggs ... Grin

EeeSheWasThin · 07/04/2018 10:33

There’s time yet...I had a dodgy oyster at a food show once. 36 hours before it kicked in. Sick as a dog for two days. Didn’t eat anything for five.

Unfinishedkitchen · 07/04/2018 10:39

Sorry but that is so disgusting I don’t think I could look at him in the same way. Is he okay mentally??

TreesAgreen · 07/04/2018 10:59

Anyone remember the poster who's neighbour gave her food poisoning from I think chicken curry? The neighbour even said they had to clean out and fabreeze the fridge as the chicken stank so much!

SnookieSnooks · 07/04/2018 11:11

Grin love the title of this post, OP!!!

AnnieAnoniMouser · 07/04/2018 11:13

Weedsnseeds1 I am a proper food scientist, not sure I'm a proper grown up though!

Your posts have been great!

You sound like a proper grown up, it’s good being able to fool the masses...but don’t give into it, I haven’t 🤣

Porton Down would be interested in your DH's resistance to toxins.

GabsAlot · 07/04/2018 11:20

@breakfastatsquiffanys

like it!

Bluntness100 · 07/04/2018 11:24

Presumably your bin has a lid? In which case he must have actively been fishing in it. Did he know the sausages were in there or was he just rummaging for the sake of it?

Oh god.

Op, there is good news. He will never cheat. No other woman would contemplate shagging him, although I guess it's not something you write on a OLD. Profile " I'm so tight with money, I proactively go rummaging through the bin so I can eat out of date food to avoid wasting it". Oh yeah baby, that's a turn on. 🤣

Weedsnseeds1 · 07/04/2018 13:01

Glad to hear he survived the night.
I can't help feeling that a Darwin Award is beckoning from his future though...

CuppaTeaAndAJammieDodger · 07/04/2018 13:01

I hereby nominate WeedsNeeds as Mumsnet Official goto person regarding all things dodgy food related.

Weedsnseeds1 · 07/04/2018 13:06

Thanks cuppa - I'm slightly overwhelmed. I normally get geek alert expressions from people in real life.
Nice to come across people who seem genuinely interested in the subject 😁

soupforbrains · 07/04/2018 13:19

Weeds Geeks are THÉ BEST.

I love science. I think most people do. We just don't know enough about it. I love it if someone who really knows their stuff, like you, is able to communicate it in basic terms to us uninitiated.

DianaPrincessOfThemyscira · 07/04/2018 16:12

He really is some kind of idiot if he has to be told by an anonymous third party that getting stuff out the bin is a bad idea.

Bluntness100 · 07/04/2018 16:20

Weeds, why do you think he won't get ill ? Oozing sausages past their sell by, in the bin and unrefrigerated over night, taken out in the morning and cooked, kept in a lunch box all day, again unrefrigerated, then taken out and cooked again at night, screams food poisoning to me. Why is it probable he will be fine.,

I also love a geeky explanation, 🤣

Twounder1 · 07/04/2018 16:27

I'm emetophobic and my dp wasn't well last night and almost threw up after fainting.
I was so close to getting him to sleep in the spare room. Never mind if he did something like this to himself.
Damn right he would be in a different room with a bucket
