Title: Green Liver?
Post by: Coatue on July 01, 2011, 08:27:49 am

Did you ever have green tinted liver? the liver I just bought from the store (grassfed) was green tinted on the outside but red on the inside...is this safe to eat raw or sign of bad bacteria?

If that green is gangrene, it's safe. Just a healthy meat mold according to Aajonus.

That's my own high meat. Green means it works, lol.

If that green is grass, congratulations, you're eating the best quality grass-fed liver I've ever heard of!

If that green is just like browning, oxidation, then it's okay, too. Just getting a bit high/aged. I eat that kind of liver all the time. I buy my liver every two to four weeks from a farm (never-frozen) and it gets pretty gnarly over that time period, but still better than freezing it. Tastes better than freshly butchered stuff, too.  ;)
