I don't do very much cooking I am making pork ribs tonight i smelt one and it smells a little funny nothing you would notice right away from opening the package but if you bring it up to your nose smell it doesnt smell that great should i throw them out !? i just bought them today but the sell by date is dated for tomorrow!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
I'd go with your gut--if it smells funny throw it out!. Just because the expiration date says tomorrow doesn't mean it's going to be exactly right!. You might however call your local grocer and see if they will replace it for you--provided you have a receipt!. I've never done it, but I would think they would replace it for you since you just bought it today and can prove that you did!.

If you bought it at Wal-Mart though, you may just be out of luck--their food is often spoiled, especially the "bargain packs" of things like pork chops, ground beef, and assorted chicken!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

ya, the first girl was right, if they are kinda slimy and greenish color that is a sign they are turning (getting bad)!. I would (if you have the receipt still that shows you bought them yesterday) take them back!. Someone at the store didn't rotate their meat section properly!. They shouldn't be like that after one day!. If it's smelly and a green tint/shade don't eat them!. Hope I helped!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

if it smels funny i would take it back to the store you bought it and tell them!.and also tell them you what another pkg!.of it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
