to feed the kids a garlic bread that is one day out of date?

[IHeartKingThistle]

DH is away. He would be horrified.

It wouldn't worry me.

At all.

Yanbu unless it looks mouldy.

So long as it looks and smells okay, then it will be fine.

If it does, cut the mouldy bits off.

I wouldn't give it a second thought.

Good job he's away then. What he doesn't know won't upset him.

Its fine if it smells and looks fine.

My dh would be horrified if I didn't use it!

It's bread, it's garlic and a bit of butter - I think you'll be fine.

Your Dh needs to toughen up. Would he really be horrified ?

Nobody needs to know.. Nobody gets hurt!

It wouldn't bother me in the slightest, I'd have fed it to him too and not told him

YANBU. At all. Can't stand it when people chuck things away purely because it's got a date printed on it.

With garlic bread no it is totally fine a day out of date. As long as no mould of course!

With chicken and eggs I would personally still eat myself but probably think twice before giving to other people/children.

But not with non meat/dairy products, I ignore the dates

dammit I was so going to cook it but there are some mould spots underneath. grr! thanks anyway!

I would eat it up to 2 weeks out of date. No mould, it's getting eaten!

Eggs fresh from the chicken's bum don't have a date - we're all far too date crazy, so much waste.

I only use dates as a guide. I've had bread which has gone mouldy before the date, other loaves have lasted a couple of days longer than the date!

Just look at it and sniff it.

Bloody hell, OP........just bloody hell!! One sodding day out of date - really?

Scrape the mould off.

I think shops tend to err open the side of caution anyway to try to avoid pele suing. Once the packet of anything is opened, you'll be able to tell if it's edible or not by the smell or the obvious mould.

Chicken however I wouldn't risk because husband has had terrible campylobacter from dodgy chicken. Everything else, garlic dad included, is fair game.

I wouldn't even think about it twice.

Yet I've seen my flatmate throw out vegetables because they were "out of date". Even though they were still crisp.

VEGETABLES.

Practically penicillin.

Garlic bread, obviously. Not garlic dad. That'd be weird.

Does Pele often sue people over out of date garlic dad then?

[boggles]

And people suing, not just Pele in particular. I don't think he's into that, much.

I wouldn't have even checked for mould
