Now, let's get to the fun part – the visual inspection! When checking if chorizo is bad, look for any visible signs of mold or slime on the surface. If you notice any of these, it's time to say adiós to that chorizo!
But don't worry, a little white powdery stuff on the surface is usually just benign mold, and it's easy to scrape off. On the other hand, if you spot any green or black mold, it's a sign of spoilage, and you should err on the side of caution. Your taste buds (and stomach) will thank you!
