Perhaps you don't have a sensitive nose. If it smells rank, don't buy
it. I don't care what the Asian moms are used to cooking with.

I once bought a package of chicken leg quarters on the way home from
work. I had chicken stew in mind. I got home, unwrapped the chicken
(double plastic wrap) and the stench caused me to step back. OMG was it
rancid!

I had to drive back to the store with the chicken in the opened package,
in a grocery bag with the receipt. I went to the customer service desk.
"I'd like to return this chicken and get my money back." Why? "Here,
take a whiff." LOL They staggered back, too. Whoa!

I can't remember if they gave me another *fresh* package of leg quarters
or a refund. Either way, by the time I got home I didn't feel like
cooking anything.
