I made a huge pot of chicken soup last Thursday. My husband put it in my basement fridge and then I forgot about it. No one has opened the fridge since.
Can we still eat if if I divide it into portions and freeze today? Or should I dump it and make a new pot?  what a waste. I'm so annoyed with myself.

I think a broth type of soup is ok at the one week mark if you boil it first for a while. The fact that the door was never opened is good.
But if there's any off odor, dump it.
sorry, this has happened to me too and it's not even so much the cost but the effort ....

If it looks and smells ok, re-season, as it may have lost some flavor, boil it well for a few minutes on high, and use it. Remember to boil it after putting anything new into it. Even the new seasonings need to be boiled.

I have never had chicken soup go bad before 1.5 weeks. It has antibiotic properties.

Good point. It's the salt. And who knows what else.

I frequently leave chicken soup in the fridge for a week and have never had a problem.

And I thought you were going to ask if you needed more modern, up-to-date recipes to serve to young, with-it crowd!
I offered my grandson a cup of tea last night and he said, "not yet."
I said, "you mean you're not old enough to want to drink tea?"
He said "yeah, you have to be elderly or ill to drink tea."
Like that.

So what is the verdict? Did you end up saving it?

Yes! It smelled fine, actually it smelled delicious. I also fed it to my three year old for supper (after boiling it for awhile first) and he enjoyed it.

I feel like chicken soup is one of those things that transcends age. I drank tea as a kid, but then, I'm probably weird.

I thought if you asked it's for older people! I wa going to tell you yes, but some like it anyway when young but older people serve it more often.
