I think if the meat looks brown or gray color instead of red - if it's red meat, or looks a funny color than it should be, then it's most likely spoiled. Also, if it feels kinda slimy. Hope that didn't confuse you more. Welcome to mylot and have a good lotting day.

I have a bad sense of smell. I can smell, but not very well. When I say something stinks, then others are already trying to get away. When others say something stinks, I don't smell it unless it is really bad. As for meat, I normally look at the date on the package. I will save it until 3 days after date. As long as it is in the fridge. I also look at the color, if the color has gotten dark, then I will get rid of it right away, even before the date. And if I am not sure if the meat is good, I (after cooking it) give a peace to the cat. If he does not eat it, then it is not good. Cats have a good sense of smell. Take care. Welcome to MyLot!

you can see if it is spoiled by just looking at it, its color, and by touching it of course.
