Would you eat swede and carrot mash 3 days out of date?

[Ladybird69]

It’s been kept in the refrigerator and it looks fine. Do you think it will be ok? Tia💐

How does it smell?

I'd eat it. It's vegetables, so no meat to go off, so as long as it's heated right through it should be all right.. But I have a cast iron stomach so your mileage may vary.

Unless it smells weird, yes.

I’d absolutely nuke it in the microwave but should be fine I think.

yes

Yes of course.
Do the sniff test.
Cook it, mash and season, add a knob of butter. Taste it.
Tastes ok? Yum.
There you go.

I never go by dates. Smell
And taste and obvious signs of deterioration such as white fur or water!

I’d probably try it, I’m not sure it would be very nice. Sometimes when things are processed the texture can go funny past the date.

Is it purely veg or does it say it’s got anything like butter in it?

No, but I'm obsessive about dates.

Unless it smells or looks off, absolutely - probably up to a week tbh.

Did you make it and is it just carrot and swede? If so, yes.

If it's a ready made shop bought packet, it probably has milk, cream or butter and won't taste good by now.

Sniffed it fine
nukked it fine
tasted it fine
ate it fine !

good so far 😆
thanks

My DH ate manky old mashed turnip and carrot and got food poisoning. Apparently if it's mashed it can harbour all sorts of old bacteria. It smelt off to me though but then I was pregnant at the time.

It's a myth that you can tell something is off by the smell. There are lots of foods that do not smell off but can give you a nasty dose of food poisoning.
