cherries in syrup fizzing when opened.
Discussion
Have a large jar of cherries in some type of syrup hiding in the fridge.
Opened them a good few months ago, I was under the impression they are nigh on impossible to spoil, or at least I thought so from the fact my parents would keep a small jar in the cocktail cabinet and it lasted years... until I ate them all.
When I just opened it now I can hear it fizzing away.
Im assuming this is bad and should be destroyed now, can't find anything about it online and not really wanting to do a taste test on them to see if they are fine.

Different foods go off in different ways, partly depending on what's in them.
The fizziness is the result of gas produced by certain foods when they go off - other foods become stale or discoloured.
Some foods contain small amounts of certain bacteria or yeasts that produce gases such as carbon dioxide or hydrogen over time.
