Spoilage is generally unmistakable - mold, sliminess, discoloration, abnormal odors, strange texture. These are all clues to tell you not to eat it. The old saying, "The nose knows", is true.
Most meats that have spoiled will give off a smell that is unmistakable. They can also get a green tinge to them, and feel kind of slimy to the touch. If you notice any of these signs it is best to just toss out the meat. Fresh meats have little or no smell to them and in the case of pork have an almost pink look to the meat. Beef should be a bright red and feel tender to the touch but not mushy.
Another way to tell that pork is bad is when you see that the expired date has passed and it doesn't smell as usual. But you should never test the pork by tasting because it can have a lot of bacteria or even toxin produced by bacteria that is not "killed" by cooking.
Another old saying, "When in doubt, throw it out!" is also important advice. The risk, no matter how small you believe it to be, is not worth taking.
All meat and fish can be treated in the same way. If it is overly smelly of pork/beef/fish then don't eat it. All fresh meat and fish should not really have much of a smell to it if it is fresh.
The first sign of bad fresh pork is odor. Fresh pork should not have a strong or unusual odor. The meat should be firm if it is sticky to the touch it is likely spoiled as well.
Smell it! If your smeller works and it's not nice smelling -it won't taste any better than the smell if you go ahead and cook it and hope it gets bettet.

Any meat has something of a smell to it. Smell all the food you buy and learn what fresh meat smells like. Then you will know when it is bad. If it doesn't smell right to you or makes you recoil, don't use it.
no pork does not smell like fish. they both have a distict smell. fish smells salty like the ocean and pork smells..... like pork. you might get an off-flavor if the pigs were fed fish meal.
No. It should smell like raw beef - if it is a beef steak. Or pork, if it is a pork steak. And so on.
Raw pork should not smell like gas. Raw meats do have a certain scent but should not smell like gas or oil at any time. Make sure to cook pork thoroughly or it can make you very sick.
If the meat has greyed and has a slightly slimy feel to it yes. If the meat is still fleshy pink or red colored and has a firm feel to it it is fine. When it comes to meat though, when in doubt, throw it out.
