One dark day on Usenet, "Ken" said:

I purchased a pack of ground beef at the grocery store, packed in the
standard styrofoam/shrink wrap package. Circumstances prevented me from
getting the beef into my refrigerator for 12 hours - it spent a fairly cool
Seattle evening in my car last night. This morning, it passed the smell
test. I'd appreciate some opinions on if the meat is good/bad.

Given that the tempurature was in the mid-50's last night (I'm not
far from Seattle myself), I'd throw it away...
