12 Less-Known Signs Your Food Has Gone BAD
#9. Spices get faded
I’m sorry to break it to you, but apparently spices don’t last forever. This means it’s time to throw away any spice that’s been in your home for ages.
But spices don’t grow mold and they won’t become mushy like fruit does either. So how can you tell whether they’ve gone bad or not?
There are two signs:
- They’ve started fading in color;
- Their smell isn’t as strong as it used to be.
Thankfully, we can find spices at any grocery store and most of them are affordable too. Adding weird spices to your delicious dishes just isn’t worth the risk.
