Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Signs of food spoilage may include an appearance different from the food in its fresh form, such as a change in color, a change in texture, an unpleasant odour, or an undesirable taste. The item may become softer than normal. If mold occurs, it is often visible externally on the item.

Detailed explanation-2: -As soon as there is change in colour, flavor, odor and appearance, the food has started to get spoiled. The first thing which comes to our notice is the change in colour or the appearance of the food. The food either gets softer or harder than its normal state.

Detailed explanation-3: -When food goes bad and starts to become pungent, it is most often due to the growth of spoilage microbes such as bacteria, yeasts and mold. Odors can come from two sources: chemicals that are released from the food as the microbes decompose it, or chemicals produced directly by the microbes themselves.
