What food item won't get eaten (light pls)

[Polkadotpjs]

I’ve just been going through my cupboards and found this beauty - cannot see anyone eating it and nobody knows its origins??!
Where did it come from? Who bought it? Sounds vile

The Christmas hamper tin of mushy peas🤮 the tin of salmon fillets in lemon juice and olive stands a chance 😁

The Birds Eye vegetarian sausages made with pea protein. I've had things made with pea protein before which were very nice. These aren't. I don't know what they've done but they've managed to make them taste really odd.

@42andcounting won’t help you if you’ve starving but the suet would make great fat cakes for the birds. Melt it, throw in crushed nuts, dried fruit and mealworm. Put in old takeaway tubs to cool in the fridge

May not feed you but it will make you feel good when you have lots of happy birds in your garden :)

I have yet to try these sausages!
As a veggie I'm used to being disappointed by various food products...
I shall make it my business to find these and be disappointed with somthing new

I am very envious that you have arora! I tried to get some the other day to make bacon pudding but the vultures have cleared the shelves of it

It went out of date in July, if that makes you feel any better . It will definitely be an emergency use only item because of that. My brain tells me it's fairly low risk because it's dried and unlikely to support bacterial growth, but my inner fear keeps telling me it's animal derived therefore possibly a bit iffy......

Thank you for the recipe Devises, that might persuade me to go for it!

I would still totally use it!

@sueelleker 😂

Fancied marmite on toast

Marmite is 12 years out of date.

We’ve moved house three times. I’ve had marmite fairly recently.

Would you still eat it?

Possibly the gluten free long life bread.

Dd gets is allowed it on prescription but it’s minging so we don’t normally bother and buy nicer bread from the supermarket. Gluten free bread currently hard to find so picked up a bread prescription today. 18 loaves of long life bread. It’ll be there for emergencies and hoping I can donate it to a food bank if not needed.

Wasabi stuffed olives, given by my DM to my DH one birthday. Will come back to you if we get desperate enough to eat them!

Just found a box of random packets of things, including a mint marinade (I mentioned earlier mint sauce makes me feel sick even smelling it so no idea where this came from) and a packet of sweet potato "rice". It'll only be eaten if the real rice all runs out (and even then there's cous cous and quinoa left, and there's a possibility of brown and red rices hiding in the back of my cupboard so I'd search for those too. I like sweet potatoes but this just doesn't appeal to me.)

Sainsbury's had a full shelf of maraschino cocktail cherries this morning.

@glueandstick - when my DGM died, (bit of a food hoarder, lived in London during the Blitz) we discovered Much Old Food in her larder. Including a jar of marmite that was several years out of date, the lid was practically glued on, it had been there so long. Plus many, many sachets of salt, pepper, sugar etc from various service stations, hotels etc.

I am a dedicated marmite fan - my family all are - but the jar went unclaimed...

Just getting into this thread now and this advert made me laugh, given what the poster just above it wrote

Chop it up , fry it and put in pasta with cheese sauce.

@angelfacecuti75, I think your advice could be used for almost everything mentioned on this thread!

We have a bottle of Campari here. No idea why, I can't stand it. Maybe I could mix it with something else to make it palatable. Ideas?

Cream soda makes things taste much nicer.

Though you'd have to find a bottle first... 🤷🏻‍♀️

I would like some emotional support spam - for the support, not for eating 😂

I have some very out of date beans-and-sausages in tins - only a couple but as they have meat in I'm dubious about them being ok three years later 😳

Cornflower from 2010 anyone? Just found some Diet Coke that went out of date in July 2019 - would you drink it or not?

@42andcounting I've only used suet for dumplings, but if you can't even have dumplings in your stew, what is the point in going on?

We saved goose fat in ice cubes in the freezer for years. Never went off.

Apparently suet makes roast potatoes crispier

I'd use 3yo tins but I'm very gung ho about stuff like that and none of us are immunosuppressed.

I've got fizzy mineral water, sugar and lemons. Maybe I could make something like lemonade to mix with the Campari, but only once everything else is drunk ...

These are great. I loved spam fritters at school, wonder what it's like 40 years on.....

I recently found two bottles of champagne behind the (never-used) range in our fireplace. One from 2006 (vintage) and one with no date (presumably not vintage). DH and I opened the vintage one and it was deep yellow and tasted really oaky, but after a while and some added cassis we managed to force it down...! Might try the other one tomorrow night - all part of the war effort, obvs!

And on that theme - I noticed our local tescos was sold out of all their prosecco the other day! They had cava and champagne, but rows of empty prosecco shelves! People are getting prepared......!

SPAM is flying out the supermarkets 🤮

In my partners parents larder is food many years out of date.

I think the oldest thing I've come across is 14 years out of date!!!! 🤮🤮🤮
