Disclaimer
Please read this alongside the checker’s result and official guidance.
Safe to Eat? provides general food-safety information based on published guidance from official food-safety authorities. The checker uses deterministic rules for the situations it supports.
General information only
Results are general guidance. The checker cannot inspect or test food, know every detail of storage, contamination, handling or preparation, or guarantee that a particular food is safe.
Not medical advice
This site is not a medical service and does not diagnose or treat illness. If you feel unwell after eating, seek appropriate medical advice. For emergencies, use the appropriate emergency services.
Higher-risk individuals
People who are more vulnerable to foodborne illness may need to follow additional precautions from official health or food-safety guidance.
Unsupported situations
If your situation is outside the supported checker scenarios, consult the official food-safety guidance.
Official guidance remains authoritative
Official Food Standards Agency and Food Standards Scotland guidance should take precedence where there is any conflict or uncertainty.
