Do not attempt to cut around the lump and salvage the rest; bacteria and toxins can spread beyond visible discoloration.

If anyone accidentally consumed even a small amount of contaminated meat, watch for symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or fever, and contact a healthcare professional immediately.
✅ Bottom Line
What you found is not normal pork, and it is safest to discard or return it. Even if it looks “like a small section,” it could carry bacteria or other pathogens that can make someone seriously sick.
If you want, I can also explain how to check packaged pork safely in the future to avoid this kind of situation. Do you want me to do that?
