melissel Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) I made chili on Monday night, and I measured out the remaining beans (I had cooked them from dried) and put them in the fridge to cool before I put them in the freezer. Tonight they're still in the fridge :( So they've been in there five days now. Would you freeze them now? Cook them and eat them? Toss them? I'm kicking myself yet again *sigh* Wasted food totally ticks me off :glare: TIA! Edited March 11, 2012 by melissel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justasque Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) If they look and smell ok, I'd eat them today, but I would not freeze them. On the up side, if you decide to toss them, though the labor invested would be lost, the beans themselves are pretty cheap, compared to some of the items in the "would you eat this" threads in the past. If you are at all sensitive to foods, then it's probably not worth the risk for the $ involved. Edited March 11, 2012 by askPauline more reasoning for my wishy washy answer.

********* Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I'd toss 'em. Dry beans are cheap. I hate wasting food too, but I hate food poisoning more. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellers Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I have a three day rule and would toss them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimmy Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I almost always say "eat it" on threads like this. But with beans I say no. They get bad super fast in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Definitely toss them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
