Would you eat these?

[Matleavemam]

Would you eat these today? (Note use by date...)

Nope, isn’t the moisture bit the bacteria multiplying?

I would eat them if they weren’t in a bag and looked/smelt fine but I watched a programme where they said bagged salad was a breeding den for things like e-coli and clostridium difficile (sp!?) because of the heat and confinement

Is it? Bollocks.. no veg with dinner tonight then

Looks like quinoa in there with the beans....hell no.

I’ve never looked at a bagged salad in the same way. Apparently if the bag is bloated/wet/condensation inside then they’ve already started breeding

Surely you’d be cooking them before eating? (Unlike with bagged salad.) I wouldn’t dismiss them just because they’ve gone past the date, but would check their condition before deciding whether or not to eat them.

I am VERY slapdash when it comes to sell by dates, but I'd be reluctant to eat them with all that moisture.

No for two reasons.

1. They look manky.

1. I don’t like runner beans

I love runner beans but wouldn't eat those, sorry OP. I usually buy whole runner beans and slice them myself, I think they last longer than the pre-sliced.

No, because they are ready prepared and I also saw the programme about the bacteria in the bag. I say this as someone who just quite happily ate mozzarella that was three weeks out of date!

Open and see what they are like inside

The look soggy and a funny yellowy colour. Not appetising at all.
