Would you eat this?

[Outofdateprawncocktail]

M&S Dine in meal prawn cocktail with use by date of 25/12/24?

No! And I would be devastating I'd let it go out of date 😭

Are you my DH? He would 🤢

I am very relaxed about dates, and how long things can be out of the fridge fr. But out of date seafood? Nope.

Not prawns, no way.

😆 Haha, yes of course no SANE person would but my Dickhead Husband will... 🤮

What a pillock. I've told him to make sure he wears undies (usually sleeps naked), as I don't want our bed ruined by some sure to be expected shitting!

Am I mean to secretly hope he suffers?
I have told him he shouldn't eat it and is an idiot if he does but he knows best of course! 😂 🙄

No, not taking chances with prawns

Nope

Has he actually eaten it?!

Cripes good luck OP's DH.

No. I left some prawns out to defrost for a few hours, but I got back later than I thought and they been out almost nine hours.
I ate them anyway, but had the shits in the middle of the night and the next day.

@Outofdateprawncocktail Are you sleeping separately tonight? Stick him on a hard cleanable surface!

He hasn't eaten them (there are 2!!) yet. They are in the fridge, he's refusing to let ne throw them out.
I have even offered him the money they cost, in case that's what's driving him to eat them. 🙄

@Randomontheinternet25 Hmmm, that sounds a sensible precaution - I'll stick him in the bathroom from the start.

Just throw them out, you don't need his permission.

I had good poisoning from bad seafood in January 2019, it was THE most horrendously vile experience and I still now have digestive problems and foods (fresh dairy )that I can not eat without discomfort and or pain, you can even get sepsis from food poisoning, absolutely not worth the risk.

I think your DH should prepare for a free colon cleanse.

Funnily enough I have a thread on a day old chicken. After much deliberations I cooked the chicken with good results. That was after extreme heat over a long period of time. I wouldn't even entertain week old cold prawns.

Only if I wanted to practise bricklaying by sealing up the loo once I'd regained my strength.

There's a chance he'll be fine.
There's a very reasonable chance he'll shit through the eye of a needle.
There's a chance he'll get proper full blown food poisoning.

Most likely the smell, appearance or taste will put him off.

@Outofdateprawncocktail this, just open them and drizzle some fairy liquid on them both and in the bin.

This is very true.

Going to give them a bit longer to mature, is he...?

No way - and I’m relaxed about this kind of thing

He could end up in hospital with sepsis if he gets food poisoning from prawns they can be really really dangerous and full of toxins when off.

Absolutely no way

Definitely wouldn't eat it, it will probably be stinky by now anyway, so the smell would tell you it was off.

It’s not worth the risk. Throw them away

Absolutely not. My mum got horrendous food poisoning from a prawn ready meal curry and passed out the next day.

Never ever mess with prawns. The slightest doubt and bin them.
