  1. I have a fresh “bone in” half ham cooked and glazed for Christmas that I ordered from a local shop specializing in hams. It is not smoked. I picked it up on Christmas Eve 2021. It was well wrapped in Reynolds wrap and kept in the refrigerator continuously… Except taking it out for just a few minutes to slice ham… for 2 1/2, maybe three weeks. It continued to taste fresh and good. Then I wrapped it up in more foil and put it in the freezer. I took it out of the freezer and placed it in the refrigerator to thaw eight days ago to make ham and potato leek soup. I did not unwrap it. It was 90° for those few days, I just didn’t get a chance to make the soup. Here I Am eight days later getting ready to throw it out… I was not going to smell it first. Just throw it out. But at the last moment I decided to smell it and see it… just out of curiosity you understand. Well it is still so pink and still smells so fresh and good and sweet. I am usually overly cautious… Cannot bear the thought of food poisoning… I know how bad food poisoning is. But I wrapped it up very quickly and put it back in refrigerator… Just to think about it for a while. I have all the ingredients and the recipe ready to go. I’m thinking… in the end I will probably toss it. I honestly don’t even understand why we would hesitate to toss!
