Does frozen turkey smell a little when unwrapping it to clean after thawing for three days?

It's not uncommon for a thawed frozen turkey to have a slight smell when unwrapped, especially if it has been thawed in the refrigerator for several days. This odor can be due to natural juices and proteins in the turkey. However, if the smell is strong or unpleasant, it may indicate spoilage, and it's best to err on the side of caution and avoid cooking it. Always check for other signs of spoilage, such as discoloration or a slimy texture.
