What do we think? It has been changed covered, kept cold (in the boot of the car!)

Smells ok

Has odd green tinge.

Muscle disease from inside, wouldn’t eat and would report to where it was bought from!!

OP it may we’ll be totally fine then again may not which means you and others would be dribbling st out of your arse holes running to the bog and chronic stomach pain.

Personally I wouldn’t and I’d not allow my kids to have it even though in all likelihood it’s totally fine.
You can buy reduced turkey crowns now for barely £10 usually £60 from Waitrose but one of those cook it job done. £10 ish plus cooking effort (it’s now in a bag so 2 -3 hours and done)

Annoying. It’s in the wheelie bin and we have plenty of other things to eat, but it was expensive and there was half left. Ah well, not sure I will do one again, it’s a lot of effort for not particularly exciting eating.

Grab turkey crowns instead so much easier in a bag Chuck it in 2-3 hours later size dependant done and loads of stock from it. No one likes brown meat really.

I don’t really like Turkey meat at all really but eat it as it’s Xmas. Of the turkey white v brown I prefer the white massively over the other.

We normally have Lamb or Pork - Chicken I think is an amazing meat so versatile

It’s called green muscle disease, caused by poor blood supply to the meat in intensively bred, fast growing birds.

Apparently the meat isn’t actually toxic but it’s pretty unpleasant to eat.

Turkey is bad enough without the aids. Nope.

Not convinced it’s that, it certainly wasn’t an intensively bred bird (at least, relatively speaking - it was a premium farm shop one vs. a Tesco special).

Anyway, it’s in the skip.
