    Another "Should I eat this?" installment (Quick, please!)

    Hey all

    I purchased some of that chunked up butternut squash that Trader Joe's sells about 2 weeks ago. Tonight, of course, I'm finally deciding to use it up. Some of the pieces are on the dry side, some are a bit..uh...mushy. They do not smell bad, and I'm not seeing anything gross on them.

    I was planning to roast them at 450 with some spices. Think they're OK to eat? I'm figuring that anything that's on them will be killed by the high heat, but wanted to check with the O wise BB.

    Thanks!
    Erin

    Oh, I'd cook them up. The worst that's going to happen is you'll definitely know your instinct to throw them away was correct! No, really, I think they should be fine. Good luck!

    Heh, thanks! They are in the oven as we speak! Now, how to combine coconut milk, curry paste and brown rice in a rice cooker...
