You open the fridge, spot a package of deli meat, and pause — something doesn’t seem right. But your mother-in-law says it’s wasteful to throw it out.
Sound familiar?
This common household situation raises a key question: Should you risk it or toss it? Let’s walk through how to make the smart, safe choice.
📅 Understanding the Shelf Life of Deli Meat
Pre-packaged deli meat: Lasts 7–10 days after opening.
Freshly sliced meat (from the deli counter): Should be eaten within 3–5 days.
Keep in mind that this can vary based on:
The type of meat
Use of preservatives
Fridge temperature and storage conditions
