A fairly foolproof way of checking milk is boiling the kettle, putting the water into a cup and then pouring in a bit of milk. If it doesn't look like tea should, then the milk is off. No smelling or checking of expiry dates required.
Having said that, I'm squeamish about meat which I've thawed myself. If someone else cooks it, then whether or not it's off or not doesn't cross my mind, but if it's me who takes it out of the packaging, then usually I find myself simply unable to...which I mostly cook with tofu which doesn't provoke the same bleeer reaction. Totally illogical.
