Clam chowder is typically good for 3-4 days after opening if it is stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Be sure to check for any signs of spoilage, such as an off odor, before consuming.

How do you know if clam chowder has gone bad?

To tell if clam chowder has gone bad, look for signs of spoilage such as any discoloration, an off smell, or a slimy texture. If the clam chowder is lumpy, has an extremely sour smell, or has a slimy appearance, it has likely gone bad and should not be consumed. Additionally, if it has been stored in the refrigerator for more than 3 days, it should be discarded.

Does clam chowder go bad fast?

Clam chowder typically has a shelf life of about 3 to 5 days when stored in the refrigerator. After that, it can start to spoil and should be discarded. Additionally, it should not be left out of the refrigerator for more than two hours, as bacteria can start to grow rapidly at room temperature.
