Found a vacuum package of smoked salmon in the fridge from a year ago. It has never been opened. How do I know if it is still good?

Vacuum packed unfrozen smoked salmon is a good candidate for botulism.

Sorry!

On the other hand, if it was commercially produced it must have a best before date.

I'm not known on this forum as being real picky about aged salmon (properly stored!) but even I ( :o ) would toss that one!!

In the trash it went. No sense in taking a chance. Thanks for the advice.
