Sorry if this has been gone over before.
Too many times I open a package of chicken pieces or even the whole bird on or just a few days before the sell date and it already smells rank. Is it?
I mean, it's the sell date, not the use by date. Why is it always stinky when it gets close to the sell by date and is it still OK to cook and eat?
I was really looking forward to grilling some chicken thighs tonight. Now I'm waiting for a steak to thaw. I gotta know if this is normal for chicken to seemingly "go bad" before it's supposed to.
Thanks
