"Is this okay to eat?" - wurm - 06-29-2011
I took a frozen solid vacuum sealed package of teriyaki marinated turkey tips out of the freezer yesterday morning to thaw in the kitchen sink in a plate of cold water. We ended up not getting home yesterday until about 5:30pm. Obviously, they were fully thawed by that time.
Better to toss or should we go ahead and grill them up and (hopefully) enjoy? I'd rather not spend the night in the bathroom, but if they're fine I'd hate to throw them out.

Turkey - yes, safe to eat
Paris Hilton - No, extremely risky.

1. How long does fresh turkey, packaged similarly, sit in the cooler case at the store?
2. It's marinated.
Make sure to report back with all the gory details if it does make a return appearance.

I wouldn't.
In addition to the first time it was out, cut up, and marinated, it sounds like it was possibly above a good storage temperature for several hours yesterday. The teriyaki would probably mask any smell and color, which means you'd be going entirely on faith.
The last time I ate turkey that I wasn't totally sure about, I ended up doubled over for 2 days.

Not sure if you do the cooking in your house, but if you do–
Make sure to report back with all the gory details when something eventually comes back to haunt you...

Raw turkey that has been thawed should never be refrozen because this increases the risk of food poisoning when the meat is finally used.

Don't do it if the turkey was over 41 degrees for more than four hours.
Google Fattom for more information.

I'd toss them.
