Will I live ?

I just checked the date on an M&S burger sauce that I happily chucked over my prawn, pasta and vegetable dish. It says bb **/?/ 2015. The day and month are illegible.
Aghhh.
The dc aren't eating at home tonight and dh had sweet chilli sauce on his.
So just me.

I think my fridge needs a clean out Blush

I'm sure you'll live! What exactly is in that sauce - I've never had it?

BikeRunSki · 29/08/2018 19:03

Did it smell or taste iffy?

I ate (and survived!) 10 year out of date rice once.

It's tastes like the Big Mac sauce that you get on the burger.
Rapeseed oil is the main ingredient, then water, sugar, and egg yolk Shock
Plus oregano and other stuff.

Three year old egg yolk, and potentially rancid oil.

If you survive the week, I'm going to start being a lot more daring with the stuff I fish out from the back if the cupboards. Grin

It had been opened sometime in the 3 years.
It tasted ok.
Time will tell Blush

The sugar will act as a preservative, as might some of the herbs and spices. If it didn't taste off, I wouldn't be too worried.

I'm sure you'll survive but your tummy might have a funny old time for a couple of days.

Who puts burger sauce on prawn pasta? You weirdo, if you don’t survive it’s the revenge of the food ghost.......

(You probably will live)

Cloudyapples · 29/08/2018 19:29

I bloody love that stuff!

Stephisaur · 29/08/2018 19:38

Best before isn’t the same as use by. It just means that it won’t taste as good as it could.

I think you’ll be fine :)

Crunchymum · 29/08/2018 19:45

You put what on your prawn, pasta and veg?

Never mind bb date, you have ishoos Grin

9amTrain · 29/08/2018 20:15

@PinkHeart5914 that's what I thought!

Also how massive is your fridge to have a 3 year old sauce in it?! 😂

HollowTalk · 29/08/2018 20:17

Blimey, I thought I was bad! I won't eat something if it's been open for a few days, never mind three years!

beanaseireann · 29/08/2018 21:05

It tastes like the Big Mac sauce - delicious.
So far so good Smile

Bic Mac sauce belongs on a Big Mac only!
