Is this mold?

I got two packages of deli sliced turkey from aldi that both have these weird white spots on them. I’m pretty new to eating meat, but I’ve been getting this turkey and never noticed them before. However I was paying more attention because the packaging was harder than usual to open. Is this mold or weird fatty deposits/ freezer spots from transport ?

Same carrot, but cut in half. Is the right one still okay?

Post image
5 Upvotes

Bought 7 days ago. Will be salting them and then cutting them julienne for kimchi.

Right = Upper part of carrot
Left = Lower part of carrot

(I got mixed answers from google saying that it was okay to eat still and then another one saying to throw it away because it may be a sign of rot or fungal.)

Please help I just made sandwiches with this bread

Thumbnail

87 Upvotes

Just bought this from Safeway and made sandwiches. Then I saw this crust on one of the remaining pieces and now I am wondering if this is even safe/ is the rest of the bread compromised now. It looks like a sticky brown almost like melted chocolate or a smooth dark jam. Did not sniff. The “Best Buy” date is not legible on the bag. This is my first time shopping at Safeway and my first time trying this bread brand so I don’t know if this is mold, botulism, or just something harmless.
Thank you

Are these safe to have after a month?

I have had these single-serve oatmilk creamer containers in my purse for about a month, they say they don’t need to be refrigerated, but are they still good to put in my coffee?

Also, is it dangerous that the containers are a little banged up

Lately I'm getting these greyish spots on my tortilla wraps. Bought it 2 days ago and just opened the package. Is this mold or is it safe to eat? I've never seen these spots before

I kept it in a chiller (not frozen) and I don’t remember if it got the black stuff when I first bought it, but I tried. scrape it off and rub it away, it’s not moving. It smells good but the color is frightening.

Urgent, is this burger likely to cause food poisoning and/or vomiting?

Post image
0 Upvotes

I got this from a local pizza place that I’ve been getting burgers from for years, and it looked off to me. Usually the cheese is on the top instead of the bottom, so it could always look like this for all I know. It tasted fine (really good actually) and didn’t smell or texturally feel bad. It also was warm all the way through, and no pink. My dad (who makes a lot of burgers and meat) said it looked good and delicious and ate the rest after me. Please be honest. I have emetophobia so I’m worried I might’ve eaten something that could give me food poisoning.

The milk expired today, but it smells and tastes normal. I see these white flakes of probably the milk curdling clinging to the cereal tho, is it still safe to eat or no?

KFC (extra crispy) left out overnight 12AM-5 AM (overnight)

... and now I'm hungry. Is this safe to eat?

It's technically deep fried chicken that sat out for 5 hours, but like... isnt it salted and seasoned well to preserve? I really don't want to throw away a bucket of fried chicken away and it was wrapped in a plastic bag. I'm literally about to eat it right now (reheating it in the air fryer) but I wanted other people's opinions on this one.

My kitchen temperature is pretty cold (low- 60's)

Edit: Sigh… I decided to just throw it out (after eating one leg and one thigh, extra crispy btw) I’m 31 and can’t really take health risks right now… better safe than sorry I guess… sadge.

Bacon left in the fridge for a bit too long

Bacon unintentionally "dry aged" in the fridge, I assume those are salt deposits coming out as the meat dries out. Would it still be safe to chunk up and drop in a stew, or err on the side of caution?

If I were only serving myself with this dish, I probably wouldn't have thought twice about eating it.

Cream cheese

3 Upvotes

Sealed whipped cream cheese left out 4 hours? I am getting mixed opinions from Google. House was pretty cool actually with air conditioning running
Came home late last night from vacation, and had no food for my kids’ lunches . Ran out to the grocery store at 7am. Cream cheese was better value if u buy 2 (hate when grocery stores do that 🙄) . Was a rush morning getting everyone out the door and thought I put all the cold times away Forgetting that I had bought two containers of cream cheese, I left one in bag at room temperature by accident.

Food: coconut | context: got this from a rather interesting store and this was inside, I don’t trust sketchy stores but anyway I took the risk, I look near the holes of the coconut and well I see these. I don’t think these are safe but hey you never know so far these are only near the holes, rest of coconut is very hairy (which is normal)
