How can I tell if grapes has gone off?
Trust obvious signs — sour or 'off' smells, slime, mould, colour changes — but don't rely on them: the bacteria that cause food poisoning (listeria especially) grow without changing how food looks or smells. That's why the time guideline matters even when everything seems fine.
Can I still eat grapes after 1 week?
The guideline is where quality and safety are both still on your side. Past it, risk climbs — and because dangerous bacteria are invisible, 'it seems fine' isn't a reliable test. The boring-but-true answer: when in doubt, throw it out.
Can I freeze grapes to keep it longer?
Yes — around 1 month in the freezer for best quality, and it stays safe beyond that (freezing halts bacteria completely; only texture and flavour decline).
Does my fridge temperature really matter?
Enormously. These times assume 0–5°C. Every degree warmer speeds bacterial growth — a fridge running at 8–10°C can halve the safe life of chilled food. A £5 fridge thermometer is the cheapest insurance you can buy.
