Don’t be a pussy. Like my mom used to say, “Eat your meat!” [sub]For all you sick bastards, she meant we didn’t have to eat the bun of the hamburger, but we had to eat the patty.[/sub]
Just make sure to use it in something with lots of seasoning in it, like for tacos or in spaghetti sauce. If you make burgers, put lots of onions, salt, pepper and garlic in it when you mix it. There’s probably nothing wrong with it. I’ve done the same thing before and the meat just tastes a little…off. Don’t worry about that. Make sure that when you cook it, you feed it to your friend too. Just don’t tell her it’s the “caca-meat” until she’s done complimenting you on your culinary prowess. Then she can’t say shit.
Well Personally I would Never eat the meat that has been that old… but that is just me.
I’ve had this discussion with my old boss many times. He has eaten lots of old meat at different times and he is still going strong… however I think he may have built up and endurance to it.
He once told me a story of a butcher from Africa who killed and cleaned the animals in his home. He never washed his hands, and always ate his meals while cleaning the meat. Also his four small children would play in the disgarded bones. None of whom got sick at all. Point being we develope antibodies as a protection to our enviroments… including what we eat. If you have eaten old meat in the past it isn’t going to surprise me if you end up spending an evening with the porcelain goddess.
So it’s upto you. I’m just saying I wouldn’t do it.
