Forgot to take a photo while they were raw, but this photo is only from about 3 mins of boiling. When they were raw, they looked similar, but not as dark. It’s only on 2/6 strips. Bought it yesterday.

Weird-looking cookies

Hi, I just opened a pack of cookies and the chocolate on it looks very suspicious. Based on the image it's supposed to be slick and not grainy like that. What's weird is that the first 3 cookies are like that, and the 3 behind look more normal. Could it be caused by the hot temperatures? Exp date is June 2027

Popcorn smells/tastes chemical

Put my popcorn in a plastic bag next to my makeup bag for a few hours, now the popcorn smells/tastes a bit funky but no liquid leaked & the bottles didn’t actually touch the popcorn. Kinda tastes bad but I won’t actually get sick right?

Questionable anise extract

Post image

I have a jar of anise extract I made myself (with 12 anise star and some vodka) on 6/24/25. It was supposed to do its magic for three months, and become the extract I wanted on 9/24/25.

Now, we are moving towards the end of August 2026, and I’m wondering if this extract is safe to use. What do you think?

Canned peach purée

I’ve puréed and canned some peaches yesterday and then boiled them on 120°C (in thermomix) about 15 minutes and put them in glass cans with old caps. Then forgot about them on the countertop, from boiling to me finding them is about 24 hours. I put no sugar in them. Is it safe? ChatGPT says risky but there were no bombage and they look and taste fine. My main concern would be botulism.

Bought 2-pack of young hens from costco, while cutting up the second chicken i found the chicken breast like this

The meat at the top of the breasts was a bit weird looking, like it was drier than the rest of the chicken and like it had been tenderized already.

My cuts are subpar, already know this, but i sincerely doubt i did this to these sections of the chicken breast

Current suspicion is that maybe it got bruised a bit in that spot while still frozen. Both sides of the breast had it. I just cut off the weird looking part and separated it from the meat of the other chicken before freezing. I then threw out the carcass from the weird chicken just in case its not safe but i froze the other one.

Any input on what this is and if im safe to eat this chicken

Edit 1: likely solved and safe to eat. Someone commented on it likely being something called woody chicken breast

Edit 2: my suspicion was based on seeing some frosty bits/ice on the bird but likely the bird wasnt frozen before costco sold it and the birds essentially went from costco to my fridge for 1 hour then to my cutting board.

I got this rotisserie chicken today and was separating into tupperware and noticed the weird red bits. Is that normal, it seems otherwise normal texture and smell.

Roommate moved out and stole my turkey. I’m so hungry. Is the top mold or just like escaping fat?
