How can I recognize spoiled foods

Here are some of the most common signs of spoiled foods:

• bad smell
• bad taste or a change in taste
• changed color (for example, if raw meat changes from red to brown)
• many bubbles on the top (for example, on the top of old stew or soup) along with a bad smell
• slime on the surface of meat or cooked foods
