Here's a fun fact: did you know that egg salad can be a breeding ground for Salmonella? Yeah, it's a real thing! So, make sure you're storing it at a temperature of 40°F (4°C) or below. And, if you're feeling extra cautious, you can always add some lemon juice or vinegar to the mix to keep things fresh.
Now, let's talk about signs of spoilage. If your egg salad is emitting a funny smell or has a slimy texture, it's time to say goodbye. And, if you're still unsure, just remember: when in doubt, throw it out! Better safe than sorry, right?
