Half pound dietz & watz turkey, has pink on it, what is that ?!
I've been trying to stock food in the fridge!.
So I thought buying two half pounds of turkey ( lunchmeat ) would be a good thing to do!.
It's only 8 days old!. I bought it 8-13-2008!. Today is August 21st!.
( how fast does turkey go bad ) - That pink stuff looked like it was starting to rot, and I always thought foods turn green when rotting!.
To make a long story short, I was able to find some slices that had no pink on them!. So I made a turkey & cheese sandwhich anyway!.
I'm figuring the most that will happen is I'll get a stomach ache!.
My main question is !.!.!.
What's that pink stuff !?
How long does turkey go old in the refrigerator !?
Thanks !.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
If you purchased the turkey at the deli counter it may be going bad!. I always get the packaged meat because it has some preservatives in it!. (Like Oscar Mayer or Hillshire Farms in the tub)!. I have had a problem with deli meat going bad!. I think that 8 days is a little long to keep deli meat!. If you purchase the packaged meat it will have an expiration date on it!. It does stay fresh longer!.
Sometimes turkey has a pinkish coloring to the meat!. It may be OK, but I would want to see it first!. Does it look like something is growing on it!? If so, throw it out!.
also, you don't know how long a deli has had that meat!. If it is pre-packaged, you will know when it was opened!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
