Would you eat beef mince 1 day last use by date?

[unconditional83]

It's been in the fridge the whole time and is organic (!!) if that makes a difference

One day *past use by

Yeah have done lots of times. Still alive and kicking.

If it looks and smells okay then yes.

Yes, if it smells ok.

Yes - if it smelled bad or looked funny you would know, but the mince doesn’t know the date anyway.

Does it look and smell ok? If so, use it.

Yes.

another that if it looks and smells okay fine, Aldi mince is generally gone a day before the use by date, other minces still seems as fresh the day before so I think it's just about checking colour and smell

Definitely.

Frequently!

(But I don’t mention it to the squeamish one who thinks eating something actually on its Use By date is playing Russian Roulette with health)

Yes. It's not exactly Cinderella's carriage that will turn into a pumpkins at 11.59!

As long as it smells and looks fine yes

Smell test and is it furry? If not just make sure it's thoroughly cooked and piping hot

Am glad I am not the only nerd in the world 😱

Yes definitely.

If it smells and looks ok, then yes.

You can tell if it’s ok by looking at it and smelling it .

Yes, subject to sniff and eye test!

If it was unminced then yes because there’s less surface area for bacteria to develop. It depends really on the production date . How long ago was this mince made?

If course I would, I'd cook it well past the date as long it didn't smell off

Do you think that food dating is such an exact science that somehow, boom, once it's past midnight it suddenly becomes a food poison?

Definitely. It might look a little grey as beef generally does after a while but if it smells good then I'll cook it.

Yes if
a) the pack hadn't blown
b) it looked and smelled normal

No

This kind of thread always reminds me of my brother, who lives in France, buying a melon in a French market . He showed me That the stall holder had written not only the date at which it would be at its best on the melon, but also the time eg “ Thursday 1pm “ !

And yes I’d eat the mince !
