First time getting pork belly and the unopened packaging seems to have a lot of solidified fat/liquid in it – looking absolutely disgusting 😂. Contacted support which apologised and credited me but did not give me an answer as to whether this is normal or not. Will check for odour as recommended when I am ready to open the package and cook later but just want to get a second opinion.

Jesus christ what the hell happened to that?
Thats crazy.
It looks normal…. Can’t tell if it’s bad unless it smells bad. There’s just solidified fat in there.
Normal
Looks good. The label says it has fat which saturates so that’s why it looks like that
I was looking at that myself a bit quizzically earlier today 😂. Good to know all is good.
Is that a package date or the best by date?
Looks normal to me. I had a recipe with pork belly a little while ago and it was similar to this.
It smelt and tasted fine.
It’s normal, it’s cooked sous vide in the pack which is why it looks like that, then you crisp it up in the oven
Yes we get that often
