Bad Chicken From Rouses?

No one here is going to be able to tell you if your meat was hypothetically bad based on it looking a little yellow, but I don’t personally trust best-by dates. Your senses are a lot more accurate than some $12/hr employee who doesn’t give a shite mindlessly marking dates on meats.

I’ve seen some absolutely disgusting, rancid pre-packed meat that’s still “good” according to the packaging date. Either go to the butcher and get it fresh or take a really good look at it when you get home and give it a good smell

Was probably frozen after the sell by date, thawed and relabeled with new date.
I think all chicken from rouses has been frozen and put out to defrost in the showcase.
I rather Sanderson Farms from Walmart.

What else did you both eat that day?

They'll probably make chicken salad with the rest

For chicken, smell test is the best.

That's pretty much a good rule of thumb for all foods except maybe cheese. Got some funky assed smelling cheeses, that are supposed to be funky smelling.

Yeah it's pretty chancy

I quit buying their meat….quality has really gone down since they have expanded…..
