That is a good question that many people could need an answer to.
Sour tasting turkey means the turkey is no longer safe to eat. Or at least heading very quickly to being dangerous to eat.
It gets there several ways. If you bought the cooked turkey from a vendor, such as a store or restaurant, they have probably not kept their supply lines fresh or they have kept the turkey in their care for too long a time.
If you cooked the turkey yourself the sour taste could come from improper defrosting, improper storage or even keeping the turkey too long after cooking.
If you did everything correctly you should comment to the vendor you purchased the turkey from so that they would know there is a problem. Their problem may come from their procedures or from the procedures of the people they originally bought the turkey from.
Sour taste is warning that spoilage is happening. Eating more of this turkey is probably a bad idea.

∙ 18y agoIf the turkey broth is sour then it's usually bad, or the inards such as the giblets, liver, etc., were left in the turkey. The liver will often give the turkey a sour or bile taste. Some people forget to check out the neck of the turkey and pull out the spare parts. LOL Sometimes, depending on where you purchase the turkey they don't bother putting the giblets, liver, etc., inside the neck, but always check. HOW TO PREPARE A TURKEY OR CHICKEN: I found out it's a good idea to soak your turkey/chicken (even chicken pieces) in cold water and salt. Leave for approx. 10 - 15 minutes and then rinse well and pat dry with paper towel. Not only does the salt help get rid of any bacteria, but it also tenderizes the meat. I wouldn't use the turkey broth because it sounds like it's bad and I go by rule of thumb "if in doubt, throw it out!" Marcy

Why can you taste sour on sour but not sour on salty?
Well, the whole thing is very complicated. The asorbic acid in sour, compliments the falic acid in other sour foods. It may seem more sour to you if you taste sour on sour, but it is just your taste buds reacting to two different chemicals. Both chemicals combined make it very easy to be tasted, and sometimes disliked. When you taste sour on salty it's harder to taste. One ingredient in salt, called cottonseed extract, mainly counteracts most asorbic and falic acids. So, in most salty foods it's harder to taste sour things.
