How do you tell if Strawberry Rhubarb Pie is bad?

Accepted Answer

There are three clear signs that a Strawberry Rhubarb Pie has gone bad. Firstly, if there's a moldy smell or if you can see mold spots on the crust or filling - it's time to discard the pie. Secondly, if the pie filling looks greyish or watery, or if there's a large amount of liquid at the bottom, these are also signs that it might have gone bad. Lastly, if the crust has become overly hard or soggy, it could be an indication that it's past its prime.
