How Does People Know When Food Turn Bad?
I have been wondering...
Answers:
it's subjective. if you smell it or look at it and you lose your appetite, chances are it's gone bad. plus, that's what expiration dates are for!!

Smell will be the first thing to tell you if something went bad. If it's canned or in a jar, check expiration date. Smell it first and if in doubt, just taste a little bit but spit it afterwards, we don't want you to have food poisoning!
Smell and experience.
Just because a can goes past its best by date it doesn't mean it is off.
The same applies to frozen food. As long as they are both properly handled they will last far longer.
