Talking of food hygiene:

What about butchers? -
you go in there and you see a fly on a piece of meat in the window -
I like to buy my meat in sealed plastic packets with a use by date.

Many years ago -
I bought meat from a butcher in the East of Melbourne
once and it was rotten - it smelt bad and not even the cat would eat it -
I have never been back to a butcher since.

How ripped off do you feel when you buy rotten meat?

I've never bought rotten meat and I've never seen a fly in a butcher shop. I'd leave!

On the other hand, you don't know who has been touching it or what has been crawling on it when you buy it pre-packaged. I bought a slab of pre-packaged rump from a supermarket once and when I turned it over the bottom was grey. I took it back.

So you buy from a butcher?
Pre-packaged rump can go grey at the bottom -
I would take it back too.
I think they spray preservative on it to stop that?

I had a mate who's father was a chef a world renown chef.

He left a side of meat to hang until it had a green tinge to its skin.
Then he would cut it into steaks, cut off the green and cook it rare.

It was the best, most tender steak I have ever eaten.

Chicken, however he never used unless it was a frozen chook.
because they are frozen immediately after slaughter.
And he felt that chook went off far too quickly.

Fish was purchased from the fish market as soon as the boats came in and were cooked that day.
Any left over were tossed away.

No one ever got sick from his food.....ever

I buy most of my meat at the supermarket (Woolies here is better than Coles for meat) but I do buy some things from the butcher.

Yes - if someone knows what they are doing then beef can be aged.

Fresh seafood is my favorite.

The largest supermarket close to me is Coles so that's where I go.
You never know how long meat has been sitting there at the butcher shop.
A cat will solve the problem - they won't eat off meat.
If that cat eats it then you can cook and eat it.

If a butcher sells off meat he/she won't stay in business for long, word gets around, and if the meat is off you'd smell it.
