another update on my rotting salad

Hmmm…

This store-bought salad, made on May 10th with an expiry date of May 13th, is composed of:

spinach
sliced almonds
red sliced onions
whole cherry tomatoes
sliced mushrooms

As of today, the almonds have black mold on them, and the mushrooms are beginning to turn black. The spinach is beginning to get a few wet spots on the bottom, but generally looks fresh. The onions and cherry tomatoes look the same as they did when I bought this salad nearly a month ago!

  1. Gak!

    It seems everything I buy these days smells like ether. You know, the stuff you kill fruit flies with during biology experiments.

    Alarming…
