Found this in the fridge, it's not gone off colour wise and is vacuum wrapped

[robbiep]

If it looks and smells OK when unwrapped then yeah, will be fine.

If frozen it will be fine, my friend who fought in the iraq war told be during thanksgiving they pulled out a turkey that was package back during the Korean war and it will still edible.

NO WAY IN HELL. The only way meat can remain that fresh looking 3 months past it's use by date is through the use of carbon monoxide treatment. Not sure if this is legal in the UK but is banned in many countries because meat can appear fine when it is actually off. Normal vacuum packaging will give meat a shelf life of approx 3 months MAX. As this is a cut piece of meat and gone through more handling then I would say 2 months MAX.

As said above, if frozen - no problem, but if it's been in your fridge the whole time then pass.

FYI - I've spent 20 years in food/meat packaging. Just saying ;-)

For £4.89 its not worth the risk. 3 months out of date ... chuck it away and buy a fresh piece.

Great thread

Possibly we need a new category below 'off topic'

I'm not convinced it's mine, I tend to only eat steak when I'm out, I think the in laws may have left it when they looked after the kids, I'm tempted to give it a go.

Chuck it at your neighbour's tree.

I might just chuck it at my neighbour.

It will be fine! Just update your will to leave everything car related to the forum trustee's..

To be honest it looks ropey even if it was in date.

Use your nose that's what it's there for, you'll know if it's off all right.

Times have changed haven't they, I remember when £4.89 would get you a tram into town, 2 tickets for the picture house and fish and chips on the way home.
