The human body is amazing. If it's slightly unsafe to eat, our sense of smell and taste will tell us straight away.

I'm pretty fussy about limp vegetables. Sometimes they can be salvaged if they're placed in water or if they're cooked nicely.

Where this line is drawn depends on the food in question and your personal tolerance to spoilage.
