…if it’s still within its original sell by date?

What is it? Did you defrost completely in the fridge?

If it is within the sell by date then it is no different to having been kept in the fridge. Unless you defrosted it out of the fridge and it has been on the counter for 3days in which case bin.

If it’s been in the fridge all the time it should be fine.

Hmm, I did leave it out for a couple of hours to defrost. I’m going to bin it, as I can’t remember if it was two hours or longer.

Of course it's fine, I can't believe how wasteful people are with food.

Minikievs · 16/02/2023 10:52

You left it out for a few bites (while defrosting) and then it's been in the fridge?

I would 100% eat it, no question

Minikievs · 16/02/2023 10:52

Hours, not bites 😂

watcherintherye · 16/02/2023 10:55

Even if you left it out for several hours to defrost, then put it back in the fridge, it’ll still be fine!

Why on earth would you bin it? It'll be fine.

BMW6 · 16/02/2023 11:16

If it passes the sniff test fine to eat

There is no reason to waste the meat.
