Does vacuum sealed meat smell bad?

Vacuum-sealed meat does not necessarily smell bad. When meat is vacuum sealed, it is stored in an airtight environment that prevents oxygen and bacteria from entering. This helps to preserve the meat and prevent spoilage, so it should not smell bad. However, if the meat was not properly vacuum sealed or if the seal has been compromised, it is possible for the meat to spoil and develop an unpleasant odor. Additionally, some types of meat, such as lamb or game, may have a strong odor even when they are fresh and properly sealed.
