So the first time I bought meat...

was also nearly the last time. (Since it's been about 2 months since my first time (hahhaa the meat I'm talking about the meat!))

It was around the second week of September, and I bought a tiny slice of fish and a tiny half of chicken breast, and put it in the fridge. The sign above the meat section suggested eating these items around 5-7 days (depending on what type of meat/fish you bought). I had left it there for barely under 1 week.. or was it 1 week and 2 days? Anyways, I took it out and noticed it sort of smelled. After throwing it away (lots of sadness, yes) I didn't buy any raw meat/fish again ...until today!!! Wow. It's now November.

ARGH I'm so stupid. Regarding the fish/meat, I should've realized the way to do things is to wash the meat/fish under cold water and then put it in ziplock bags, then stick it in the freezer. That was the way to go. Unfortunately, that first time I totally went off that road and it ended all mucky and mushy and stinky. So today, after coming home, I diligently washed the meat/fish I bought(I discovered that I didn't like that cold, slimy feeling all over my hands and I understand why some people are propelled to be vegetarian/vegans -- I admire vegans). I went through the steps and froze the fish and chicken breast. I still haven't had the desire to buy red meat, because I think starting off with non-bloody is also the way to go =0

I haven't been eating meat at home anyways, and so the only meat I've been getting is at school, and I don't have to cook that!

Now there's no pressure to eat the meat within 5 days- it can keep in the freezer for weeks.. months....... wow, that's a lot of time!
