Store it right

  • Keep sealed; pour off or stir in the clear whey on top, it's harmless.
  • Never leave out more than 2 hours.

Signs it has gone off

  • Mold spots.
  • Puffed or bulging lid.
  • Yeasty, fizzy, or alcohol-like smell.

Never taste food to test it — a small bite is enough to make you ill.
