I think I just ate some bad hamburger?
I had some ground beef in the fridge, I thought it was ok, it smelled kinda weird, but not anything abnormal or nothin. I fried it up and it tasted funny, but I was hungry so I ate it. I had gravy over it, so I thought well maybe it's the gravy that tastes funny. Now I feel sick to my stomach, and I am "tasting" this hamburger over and over. Should I try to make myself throw up, or take the chance that I could have poisoned myself. LOL. Please don't laugh. I was hungry!
Answers:
Ground meats spoil faster than whole pieces, because of the exposure and heat produced by the grinder. If it was in your frig. from the store more than 2 days, you should have tossed it. Always check the "sell by" date on the package. You are probably going to feel a little nauseous for a day, take some tums or rolaids, but you'll live.
