Would You Eat This?

[mrs07]

Raw chicken was in fridge a few days. Chicken was cooked and placed back in fridge. That was 1.5 weeks ago. Safe to eat?

Edited for typo

I would not. A week and a half is too long.

[mrs07]

What is the limit for cooked chicken in fridge? Raw chicken in fridge?

H and I are having a disagreement. I am currently cooking different chicken in the slow cooker for dinner.

[panicked]

My rule for leftovers/cooked food is 48-72 hours, no longer. I don't eat meat, so I don't worry about raw poultry.

Cooked chicken that has been in the fridge for 1.5 weeks? Nope nope nope.

I eat just about anything, but 6-7 days is my limit on cooked meats. 10-11 days? Negatory. Toss that shit.

[mrs07]

Okay, I have definitely eaten stuff over 72 hours old, but that is a good rule to follow just to make sure leftovers get consumed, let alone food safety.

I had written off this chicken a few days ago. I had prepped it planning to bake it in a casserole soon after, actually that same night but I didn't have the rest of the ingredients.

No. I wouldn't eat it and I wouldn't let my dh eat it even though he has a cast iron stomach....

[KaraOrNot]

Nope!

[nessness]

Nope. 4-5 days would be my limit.

[VdkaLime]

Yeah nope.

[Balki.Bartokomous]

No way. I am REALLY surprised that nothing visible is growing on it.

[zarapipe]

Noooo. I probably wouldn't even feed it to my dogs.

Oh hell no.

[mrs07]

Thanks for backing me up, ladies!

1.5 week old chicken is a "hell no," doesn't matter how long it was in the fridge before cooking. It could have been cooked the day it was killed and it still wouldn't keep for 1.5 weeks.

[candyland]

No, 3-4 days is my max on leftovers.

[IrishBelle]

I usually answer yes to these but no way. It needs to be tossed.

[Deleted]

Nope.

[Kore]

Oh fuck no

[VillainV]

Leftovers with cooked meat get tossed after about 4-5 days in our house. It's just not worth getting sick.

[curbsideprophet]

Nope

[papie]

No way. I would eat/cook chicken that has been in the fridge a few days and would not eat chicken that was cooked 10 days ago. Both combined? Hell no.
