Have never ate them myself but got some for the dogs. Opened it up to separate and the smell was to say the least very strong. Is it supose to smell that strong? Packing said to sell by date that was 5 days down the road. One side is kind of turning greyish as well. Should I still use?
Mitch, if it smells a bit strong I would not worry but if it is sticky to the touch I would discard .Sometimes when you rinse a meat that smells a bit you'll see the smell go away but if its mells pretty bad after words(rinsing) I would discard.I use kidneys and I have eaten them myself ,it's pretty good with a good sauce LOL but my dogs love them i take my kitchen siscors and cut them in medium pieces. The green is no worry unless it is all over the meat but rinse it and see.

I'm not a kidney/organ person myself ... but I agree w/Angelique. Rinse the meat off and see if it still smells. Also, my mom & dad (who were both farm raised) swear that the closer to going bad without actually being "bad" the meat is, the better the flavor.

I bought some kidney a couple of days ago and the smell was not very pleasant. I don't know how to describe it, but I wouldn't have eat them even with Angelique's sauce.
If your dog eats it, and doesn't throw it up later, then it was probably good.
While I do frequently feed fresh kidneys to my dogs, I can't stand the smell. Really can't stand it. Don't know how you do it Angelique (eating kidney, I mean! lol).
Unfortunately my dogs won't eat kidney on its own so I have to chop it all up and mix it with ground meats and/or organ mixes.
I try not to breathe through my nose when handling kidneys... it just makes me sick
I fed it and he liked it. He has eaten everything I have offered so far. He had Tilapia fillets today that we had out for us but was getting old. He played with it for about a minute than gone.

I know many people who cook whole beef hearts in the oven just like we would a roast and absolutely love them. As Nancy said, they do soak them in salt water first. I think that's to draw out all of the excess blood.
Beef hearts are a staple for my dogs, but I don't think I will be trying them any time soon.
