in actual fact 'best enjoyed by' is not a 'use before' one so you have leeway on it.

Threfore forevercleaning 'she say yes!

If it smelt OK, I probably would.

Hm well best 'enjoyed' rather than 'use by' so worth a try. If it tastes ok it should be ok.

Smoothies go all fizzy and fermented when they're off. Don't think Innocent smoothies keep for long though in my experience.

Oooh hang on - you're pregnant. Don't risk a tummy upset if you can help it in that case.

Maybe a lobster and oyster smoothie is what she's really craving though.

i wouldn't eat a meal like this if you paid me.

if that's 'fine cuisine' they can keep it.

cheese AND cream? in one meal? now that puts an innocent smoothie to shame for causing an upset stomach.

That was only a few days ago. If it smells okay, of course you can drink it.

What on earth did people do before supermarket imposed sell by dates?????!!!!
