1 week old chicken breast = good to eat?

[Turkish]

I broiled some chicken breast last sunday and couldn't finish it. Is it ok to eat? It was covered with aluminium foil in the fridge.

update: Alright, well, I took a bite and it didn't taste right so I trashed it. Ate pasta instead. Thanks everyone.

At least you asked...

if its in the fridge i think its good, maybe heat it up first.

 

[ohtwell]

I wouldn't trust it for more than four days in the refrigerator.

Well mine was cooked and kept in the fridge, both aluminium foiled and sealed in a ziploc.

1 week is pushing it. But if you're a student and have a flexible schedule that accomodates multiple desperate runs to the toilet, maybe you can afford to roll the dice.

food poisoning is a serious illness that should be avoid at all cost! what's more important, your health or your hunger?

I guess I'll give it a try and if it "tastes funny", I'll trash it.

no

if it doesn't look funky or smell funky or feel funky and you get it good and hot first.. it's probably ok. not gonna guarantee it but.. probably. If it met those tests I'd probably eat it. but if you don't eat it today.. pitch it.

(the feeling funky thing is usually the first sign it's getting iffy)

Put it in the microwave to "nuke" any additional bacteria that might have grown on it over the past week. It should then be fine. Enjoy your chicken!

Oh, if the flavor is a little funky, just sprinkle some cayenne pepper on it or smother the chicken in BBQ sauce.

Lol!

It's fine dude. I did the same thing last week... just nuke it for a minute on one side, then nuke another for the other side.

 

[jtusa]

If it doesn't kill you it only makes you stronger...go for it.

 

[ArmchairAthlete]

Eat it and post back here, while vomiting if need be.

I have the 4 day rule, and I have a new fridg that keeps stuff very cool

California Poison hotline seems to think that 1-2 days max for leftover chicken is all that's acceptable.

Stick it in the microwave and you would have been fine.

I know you majored in food science but it just didn't taste right even after microwaving it.
