Bottle of sweetcorn relish. Supposed to be eaten within 4 weeks of opening, but I opened it in....August Confused. Do you think it will be ok?

Generally I would never exceed the use by date of fresh stuff, but with preserved/tinned/packets of stuff I’m much more relaxed, and will happily eat stuff months out of date. But... this will have been open 4 months more than recommended!

Has been refrigerated. Eat it or not?

Knew I should have bought some more the other day!

I'd eat it. Tomato sauce says to consume within 1 month and barbarian pickle within 6 weeks(!) its a relish so effectively a preserve. If it's not mouldy or smelling "fermented " it's fine

Skim the top off, have a good sniff and a little taste, then decide. I would probably eat it.

I'd eat it no problem, so long as there wasn't any mold. Sounds delish!

We've been eating some plum pudding chutney today from last Christmas.

If it attacks you...kill it. If it doesn't, eat it as an example to the other jars.

I've eaten an out of date tomato relish before and I'm not gonna lie. I was sick and shitting for wales

FruityWidow · 31/12/2019 19:23

As long as it doesn't smell fizzy, yes I'd eat it.

Sorry, bottled it. Sweetcorn relish went in the bin.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t miss it as much as I thought I would Grin
