So, how long does turkey keep in the fridge? Three to four days, full stop. After that, it’s either freezer-bound or compost-bound. Treat your leftover turkey like a precious, perishable guest—not an immortal relic. Your stomach will thank you, and you’ll avoid the epic saga of the “Turkey That Kept Giving (Food Poisoning).”
Now go eat that sandwich on day two while it’s still majestic. And if you’re reading this on day five? Please, just buy a frozen pizza instead. Your gut will high-five you later.
