Would you eat fish that was 1 day out of date?

[Pinkchampagne]

Just looked in my fridge, and the fish I bought on Friday was meant to be eaten yesterday.

Would you take the chance, or would you just bin it?

Lol!

Yes. Would just make sure it was properly cooked. Does it smell okay to you?

Haven't opened the packaging yet. I am a bit scared to eat it now!

I would definitely eat it but then I used to regularly cook rice and leave the leftovers out overnight and stuff my face with it in the morning instead of making breakfast.

Then the wonders of MN informed me of a nasty bug you can get from rice that has been left for too long and not chilled quickly enough - so what do I know [grin}

I eat leftover rice - it's fine if it's been kept in the fridge (I have some even as we speak from a Thai curry made two days ago). My parents are Sri Lankan and we ate left overs with rice all the time!

And the fish should be fine. If not very flavoursome, make it into a nice fish pie with veg, a cheese sauce and lots of lovely mash potato. Yum!

TBH, I think we're too worried about food poisoning and super cleanliness these days - no wonder our kids develop allergies. 'What does not kill us, makes us strong' (she said as they carted her off to hospital with galloping dysentary )!

Aye, I'd eat it a week out of date

I would IF it looked and smelt ok

I would bin it. Fish is notorious for food poisoning.

Well I was told (by a fishmonger, so maybe with a vested interest....) that for fish (not shellfish) to have rotted enough to cause you illness, it would smell so bad that you never in a million years consider having it in the house let alone eating it. So I would definitely feel happy eating it, but would agree that it's not likely to taste so good. Curry it maybe?

So, PC, what did you do?

If you don't answer, we'll know you ate it and now RIP.

Lol! I ended up having a friend round & getting a chicken kebab!

Chicken !

Yes chicken, and I have no idea if it was a day over it's sell by date, but I'm still here!!
