Meat Use By Date Question?!


Question: Meat Use By Date Question!?
Im thinking of using a lb of hamburger thats only one day past its expiration date, i smelled the beef and it smells fine to me, but im wondering if its safe to use, also it is slightly a darker color than its vibrant red, not sure if that is a huge deal or not, so yeah any suggestions would be great to know!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
it's fine to use, don't worry!. If it doesn't smell and it isn't green it's ok!. Meat is supposed to be darker colour - they put colouring in it to make it so red!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

One day is fine, especially considering it smells fine!. It might be a little darker and that is fine, as long as it isn't green!. Make sure you cook it thoroughly though, just to be sure!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Generally, you have no more than a month, from after the 'use by date' to eat meat that has been frozen!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

don't use it never take the risk!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
