Cured meats can go bad
Cured meats now have bad additives like conservatives (welcome to the 21st century)
And I have eat a shit ton of cured meats in my life
Some of them I try to avoid like chistorra, but sobrasadas were all OK until this one, it's really really bad one, not just me but also my mother said it taste bad, so bad she also threw up the piece of smashed meat (sobrasada its called) and bread I gave her to have a taste and tell me if she like it.
She, pretty much like me... doesn't like this one, but she tasted many others that tasted well, and I agree with that.
And that is what makes me want to worry, 2 people who have eat many of these before, now do conclude that this one in specific actually does taste very bad, even if it says it is the lot of 28 march 2017 and expires 12/2017.
And I don't care,it does taste bad, and foods can contain bad substances in it,
Apart from, it wouldn't be the first time a food producer make bad foods with deadly substances in it (last time I read something similar related to this subject happened in Brazil, where they took expired on-stock food, cover them with oils and re-colour them to re-sell) it can happen in A, UK, and EU too.
Not because it is tagged with any of the super famous/trusty feeling "cocacola" or "mcdonalds" brands, mean it is risk-free and all healthy.
Nothing is sure in this life, so you have to watch out for yourself and be a perfectionist seeker, because nobody is obviously going to your home and say "hey buddy, we are here to give you a free health check and tell you what to eat and what not so you can have perfect health" - if you think that is possible, keep dreaming because that's not happening for free.
I am an individual, so I think for my own stuff, but my empathy makes me aware of other peoples fuck ups, which in the end, could end fucking me up and not them, while they got paid for it. LOL .
