Would You Eat This To Save Money?

OK, here’s my predicament: we’ve been really careful planning what we were going to eat this week, to prevent the usual thing that happens in the wind-down to the weekend – resorting to takeaway food.

However, I’ve just gone to start a spag bol, and have found the mince looking a little less than healthy:

Normally, it should be a nice pinky-red colour shouldn’t it, but I don’t know whether the brownness is something to worry about?

So the question is, should I ignore the way it looks and just cook it, or should I go on my instincts and resign myself to having to spend money on something else? What would you do? How far should we go to be frugal?
