This. Rinse in running water and cook it.

When in doubt throw it out! Not worth the risk.

My question is... let's say there is some bacterial growth causing the slime. Wouldn't fully cooking the chicken solve that?


The bacteria is one part of the problem. The other part are the toxins the bacteria form. That’s why heating rotten food won’t make it safe to eat. But I’m sure we have all eaten loads of slightly expired chicken from restaurants and food trucks, so there’s that.

Soak it in a solution of cold water and white vinegar for a few minutes. Rinse well, pat dry. Do a sniff test. If it smells fine, cook and enjoy.

No way I'd eat those. Neither would you if you've ever had food poisoning.

Yes, cooking will solve that. If it doesn't smell bad, you are fine.

I wouldn’t chance it with meat.
