i've got some M&S thick and creamy custard but it's past it's use by date......

[mckenzie]

...it's been unopened in the fridge. The date on it is 10/9, today's 13/9.
Would you eat it?

[blametheparents]

Yes

[nickytwotimes]

If it has been kept nice and cool, then I would open and sniff. If it smells fine, then a wee taste. If that is okay, then I'd eat it.

[scampadoodle]

Unless it's actually mouldy, it'll be fine. Shame to waste it...yum. Have you made a crumble?

[mckenzie]

thanks guys. No crumble but the DCs and i made a lemon drizzle cake earlier on today. That will have to do. Or I could cook the M&S apple pie that is also past it's date (not good food/menu planning this week at all )

[FabBakerGirlIsBack]

No as it is dairy but then I never eat anything past its date.

[bidibidi]

It'd be disappearing down someone's throat before you finished typing that, OP.

[MummyElk]

yes if it smells ok etc. i'd eat it. and the apple pie!! (specially if you heat the apple pie properly)
mmmmm

[Katisha]

It'll be fine. We regard sell-by dates as fiction in this house. If it smells OK then it is OK.

[Montifer]

I tend to ignore use by / best before dates and trust my eyes / nose / taste buds (usually in that order)

[mckenzie]

just waiting for the apple pie to cook. I love cold custard on hot apple pie . I would offer you all some but......

[mckenzie]

absolutely delicious!

[Katisha]

Yah boo to sell-by dates!

[mckenzie]

someone come and take this custard away from me please. It's nearly all gone and there's only me here!

[Katisha]

Well you might as well finish it...It may have gone off by tomorrow...
