Not So Fast with That Fish or Other Meat!

Fish is supposed to be a healthful, nourishing meal -- but is it always?


The answer to that is, of course, no!.  For various reasons the fish you often buy at the supermarket that looks so delicious is actually rotten -- or going rotten.


A good way to test the fish before you buy it is to stick your finger or thumb into its side with extra pressure. If the flesh and skin bounce back within a second or two it is fresh -- but if it takes a few minutes to bounce back -- it is rotten or nearly rotten. Beware.


Another good way to test the freshness of  --any meat -- if your have doubts is to cook a small portion and offer it to your cat -- or dog.
Cats are generally the best for this but dogs are good too.


If  your pet turns its nose up at it when it would generally gobble it down. Beware. The meat is probably going bad.


Other things you want to do when buying any meat include checking to see if that meat, chicken or fish has any unusual odours. Check to make sure that any wrapping is not damaged. Dangerous bacteria can still contaminate the food through rips in the wrapping say experts. And think twice about buying food that is passed the expiry date. Food that looks, smells and tastes good can still make you sick -- especially if you have an extra sensitive stomach.


So don't be too fast when buying -- or eating -- that fish or other meat. Test it first.


See  you next Tuesday, May 22, with a few more ideas on protecting yourself -- and others.  until then have a great Victoria Day weekend -- or just a great weekend. It looks like it's to be a great one out here in Vancouver, B.C. with nice sunny weather.
