Discusting Stink After Opening Up Ribs From Exton Giant. Get it Together!
At first I thought maybe the smell was something from the garbage disposal but it wasn't. It was from the meat. I looked at the meat. It wasn't discolored. And the sell by date was eight days away. How does this happen?
I pack up the meat in four plastic bags (so the juices wouldn't leak) and I drive back to the Giant to get my money back. And my car stunk so badly I had put a window down. I bring it up to the counter and they didn't even question me about it. But about 10 seconds into making the return the customer service guy says, "OH MY GOD!" and pushes the ribs away.
How does this even happen? Was the meat sitting out for too long before they packed it? Did something other than the meat get into the package? Now I'm going to be grossed out by ribs for a while.

DISGUSTING, LOL !
But it made for a damn funny story.
Peeee uuuuuu
LAWD, think of the damage to your stomach had you eaten that shizz.
Jkirf I know!!
That really is scary!!
Oddly enough...I had the same thing happen to me recently. It was a package of ground pork. Most beautiful meat I have ever seen. Yes, it was also the perfect color inside. But it smelled weird. Icky. I thought, "Well, I'll cook it and it should be ok."
I had it on the stove about 2 minutes when I couldn't stand it I tossed it in the trash.
I am curious though...your ribs looked wonderful as did my ground pork. How can it be that the meat was...what?? rancid?
Dude, you got some tainted meat.
TAINTED MEAT
Serving up some ribs for some lucky lady? Shoulda just cued up some Soft Cell and lit some scented candles.
Um, never buy meat on sale?
Annika but the date was fine.
That's just offensive.
But, it happens.Quality control is probably some poor schmo who is just punching a time clock.
That's not uncommon for pork packaged tightly in cyrowrap. If it is a sulfur like smell, usually a quick rinse and the smell is gone. For some reason, the same thing does not happen with beef.
If the smell is more rancid and sticks around afterwards, then it could have been bad meat, but typically that would also be indicated by color and texture too.
Chris thanks for the tip.
What the what??? What a perfect way to ruin your appetite for dinner. I want to know what caused it!
Vv me too!!
Ok, that's just disturbing.
Yup. Gross.
