>MEAT
>If opening the refrigerator door causes stray animals from a
>three-block radius to congregate outside your house, the meat is spoiled.
>
>CANNED GOODS
>Any canned goods that have become the size or shape of a basketball
>should be disposed of. Carefully.
>
>WINE
>It should not taste like salad dressing.
>
>POTATOES

>
>GENERAL RULE OF THUMB
