I am sick of buying meat from stores and it being spoiled..Last time I bought pork chops we ended up with Chinese death cramps. Now tonight, I was planning on making a nice chicken dinner for my hubbys b-day and the chicken smells like rotten assholes (or what I would suspect rotten assholes would smell like). Anyway no Salmonella for us tonight... Why is meat spoiling so easily? Sell by date wasn't even till the 31st on the chicken. It pisses me off to no end!!!  Oh well I guess it is tuna salad sandwiches tonight!

Guess that explains all of the other times I have gotten spoiled meat, eggs, milk, etc. from the high priced stores too then.   Seems lately the quality of foods has become shitty no matter where you shop. At least here they have. |

Because Wally World uses carbon monoxide to keep the meat fresh LOOKING far after the typical cut of meat would turn brown and be tossed out. Go to a butcher or small shop if you want good meat. The crap from wally world is cut elsewhere, gassed with CO, packaged,and shipped all over the US. Fresh it AIN'T. |
| Just take it back. I bought some nuts that were terrible and returned them. No problem. It is a bit of a PITA to take it back, but you get your money back, and it will show on some printout that it was returned that may get somebody to fix the problem. The best rib eyes I've had came from Sam's Club. |

If you buy meat from ANY place, you should either use it soon or freeze it. Doesn't really matter where it comes from. (The exception being if you're aging the meat in your fridge, or if you're making something like a sauerbraten). Sam's meat is just fine. I don't know if they do anything to it to keep it "fresh looking" or anything like that. I've bought plenty of meat there, and either A) use it right away or B) freeze it right away. Now I'll buy good, aged steaks every now and again but for regular old stuff, Sam's offers good stuff for a decent price. |
No I just took a spoiled chicken back their tonight, Ex date is Sunday and my fridge is cold. they did give me a nice refund for it. |
If hubby is hunting around farming country deer are as tasty as beef. Find a neighbor or friend who hunts and ask them if you can try some. Deer like cows chew their cud, have multiple stomachs. |
