AnswerNo longer than one week. After that, it begins to smell pretty bad. If it smells bad, it is going to taste bad - guaranteed. AnswerThis meat will last about the same as all cooked meats. If it is stored in an airtight container. It will last about 5 days. AnswerAccording to the Idaho Heath Department, meat and lettuce stay good for a MAXIMUM of 7 days from opening the package. The date on the package tells you information about how long you can wait before you need to open the product and start using. I usually throw the product out by day 6. The meat needs to be kept above freezing but below 42 degrees F to keep fresh.

If frozen, no more than a few hours. Bacteria begins to grow on thawed meat. Hard to say but if it gets warm to the touch probably not good.
