Eating a day old chicken?

[erja]

Is this okay? Sliced chicken in a packet, use by date 26 Jan. Not been opened.
Are we able to use it?

I would.

Open it and smell it. Probably ok if it smells fine and has been refrigerated properly thw whole time.

Not if it smells off or has gone slimy mind.

I would as well, especially if unopened

It’s fine. People are so scared of use by dates!

Just try it and report back here if you survive.

(I would)

Yes. The use by date is normally a little earlier then what is safe. Once opened though, I will use you what you, then maybe throw the rest.

I'm sure it's fine

Would it be okay for a 2 year old? That's where I'm skeptical about it!

Sceptical*

Off topic question. I cant see how you can edit a post here to correct mistakes. Is their one?

Just smell it. If there's no smell it's fine but if it smells bad then throw it out! To be honest I wouldn't take my chances. Dh and I are chicken in date that had a weird smel once and get got terrible food poisoning 🤢

@erja, If in doubt, chicken out !

Wouldn't it be rather small?

Awww, flummoxed you beat me - I came on to say you wouldn't even get one meal out of it.

Yes. It will be fine. As long as it smells ok it will be fine.
