Ok so I bought a spaghetti squash & a butternut squash right before Christmas (hahahah) & I've been meaning to throw them out & meaning to cook them (obviously) for a while before this!! They're both organic & were expensive so I'm hesitant to toss them before I know if there's any chance they could still be good. Doubtful I think. They look the same as the day I bought them though!

    If they were rotten you would know! Cut open to know for sure! Squash lasts a long time before rotting!

    Enjoy! Spagetti Squash is Yummy!

    I still have a spaghetti one from about then too and I still plan on using it. If it isn't mushy or moldy it should be fine. Squash usually keeps for quite a long time.

    You can keep them for a long time in a dry area. They should be fine and I think you'd know without even having to cut them open, but cut them open to know for sure and cook them up!

    Honestly, they should be fine. If they were bad thye would have mushy bruisy parts on the outside. Cut they open and take a look.
