Husband said my food smells gross

Update: still no food poisoning!

Update: I finished cooking and had a bowl with a corn bread muffin. It tasted fine. It was actually delicious! I’ll do another update if I get food poisoning.

I am getting over bronchitis. I desperately wanted some beef vegetable soup so I went to the store and bought what I needed. The stew beef was packaged today and smelled fine when I took it out.

I seared the meat and threw onions in. Currently, it’s simmering in stock, diced tomatoes, bay leaves etc for about an hour before I add the other stuff. My husband came home and said, “Oh my god, what is that smell? It’s nauseating.” I was taken aback and told him I was making soup. He told me the beef must be bad and urged me not to eat it. I’m not smelling what he’s smelling but I’m a little stuffy. Does searing cause gross smells sometimes? I’m going to eat it. I’ll take my chances.
