Would you eat this?

[JackOfGentleman]

I totally forgot about this! Just found it at the back of the fridge. It expired on Friday, would you eat it anyway or should I bin it??

Bin

yes & I certainly would cook it & see

Cook it and see what??

I would bin

I’d cook it - it won’t kill you a few days past the printed expiry date.

Yeh it’ll be fine. If it smells ok it’ll be ok. The dates on things are usually very conservative

Smell it. But no, I wouldn’t, I’m not a fan of having the shits.

Of course, if it looks and smells fine then I absolutely would. FAR too much awful food waste going on these days based on dubious use by dates.

Yeah I'd give it a go, check it on opening, check again once cooked and make a call
Probably eat it

Eat it.

It will be fine.

I would.

I’d make sure to heat it thoroughly and yes I’d eat it. Best by dates are not expiry dates.

I'd eat it.

Yes if it’s piping hot , if it smells ok then yes

One day out of date I would eat, but not 3 sorry.

If I ate meat, which I don't, I'd eat it. I'd just make sure it was piping hot all the way through.

Except it IS 'use by' in this case!

No. Not full of preservatives.

I wouldn’t. I push things like this all the time. And I have the shits after it all the time. I am starting to learn my lesson.

Feel a bit sick by how many people would consider still eating this. Personally I'd throw it away (well I'd actually give it to my mum to feed to the foxes).

I’d have cooked it, eaten it, and then noticed the date when I was disposing of the packaging. It’ll be fine. It’s only a couple of days. 🤷‍♀️

Cook it and see what??

what it tastes like, you'll soon know if it's off

Normally yes but as it is mince no as that is notorious for food poisoning.

if it's absolutely fine to eat on the 27th then it's unlikely to be rotten on the 30th when kept in the fridge.
