My sourdough starter turned pink after 9 days and I almost baked with it
I spotted the pink streaks on day 9 and a baker at the Portland farmers market told me that meant bad bacteria, not yeast. Has anyone else saved a starter that went off color, or is it always a throw it out situation?

So the baker said bad bacteria, did he actually look at it or just go off the color? Honestly pink is usually the one people say never mess with, but I'm curious if he told you why exactly.
