This turkey is off isn’t it?

Help 🙃

Oh my goodness it looks like it's diseased. What does it smell like?

I don’t eat meat but that looks off to me. Sorry.

Definitely.

It doesn’t look great

Is it off, ummm I don’t know

yuk.

Awk op do you have any back up... chicken in the freezer?

Actually looking again is that green mould?

When did you buy it?

Is it off or is that a patch of the feathers that haven't been plucked fully. Hard to tell from those pictures.

Unwrap it and smell it.

I'd say yes. Ew.

Oh dear

Do you have a substitute?

Are you sure those aren’t blobs of badly distributed herb butter or stuffing? Is it one of those ready prepared roast in the bag birds?

Definitely not ok. Send those pictures to wherever you bought it from and complain loudly.

For now - anything in the freezer? Chicken, other meat?

Yeah open it and take another photo?

It’s in a cook in the bag bag so can’t smell it. It’s not mould I don’t think. I’ve got a gammon but no chicken back up

I’ve got a raging cold so can’t bloody smell anything

It’s just gammon for you today then!

Do complain with photo evidence to the shop after Christmas though

Might be a patch of feathers or a bruise - turkeys bruise very easily
Open it and give it 5-10 mins then smell it - you need a few mins after opening as they are strong smelling when first opened

A lot of people who bought their turkeys in Aldi were complaining about them yesterday

Is it from Aldi? I think they had a run of turkeys going off. Hope you can find something else to replace it

It is Aldi. Bloody hell!

The second picture looks like a patch of feathers not fully plucked. We had a few patches of them on our fresh turkey.

That’s absolutely vile. Sorry OP! Hope you still enjoy your Christmas lunch

Don't open it. You'll never get rid of the smell

The only way to tell is open the bag to check and smell it. You can then cook it normally without a bag if it is ok.

That looks minging OMG. I did see on a few news sites that loads of people had ‘off’ turkeys from Aldi
