[OT] fridge life of cooked mushrooms?

I buy the prepared salads that come in bags. If I seal the bag, it gets slimy in two or three days. If I leave the bag open, it will keep for as much as a week. Those bagged salads seem to last forever -- like multiple weeks -- for me. Maybe the arid climate? As long as you try to buy them with a long "sell by" date and as long as you don't open the bag they keep pretty well. Isn't there some sort of gas in the bags that works as a preservative? Like what they have in cold storage warehouses? Probably! They may say "organic" (the latest buzz-word to justify "premium" prices), but I don't think any of them say "preservative free". (Probably because it wouldn't occur to most of us to read the label for such a statement on fresh produce.) |

I usually draw the line at four days. But they I have a short memory and a weak stomach so that's in the interest of safety. More than four days and I'm not sure of origin date. And Charlie will eat anything that is in the refrigerator, so I have to be kind of careful about long term residents. Both my daughters have been told if I die first to clean out the refrigerator for him once in a while. Then again, he seems to be able to eat darn near anything without problems. He has eaten in street markets all over the world during his time in the military. LOL, isn't it amazing some of the things that hubbies will eat? When Rob was in Korea the first time, he would eat stuff that the Koreans with him wouldn't touch as they didn't know what was in it. He used to scare them with his willingness to try just about anything. He did pretty much the same in Germany. By the time he went to Korea for the second tour, he'd learned that some foods can bite back. Pam S. who was accused of trying to poison him once. |
