Aibu to ask for your ideas?

I'm talking newest one is use by 2009. Four in total. What would you do with them?

My friend gave me them to feed to my dog.

I do not want to feed them to my dog.
Is ashens still going?
Will they be okay to put out for birds/hedgehogs?

I assume it's best before date which passed, not use by (I don't think I've ever seen that on a tin) so they are safe to use. Just may not be the best texture

Martin is that you? Is it lucky meat?

Bin them. Why bother taking the risk?

DressingGownofDoom · 30/12/2020 16:47

Throw them in the bin for crying out loud.

Godimabitch · 30/12/2020 16:49

What condition do the cans look to be in?

I'd bin tbh, you dont know how they've been stored. If we had no money and dog was starving then I'd consider it but I wouldn't unless I really had to.

Bin them

CaramelCandle · 30/12/2020 16:51

Definitely bin them. Best before doesn't mean they can be kept for 11 years! Shock

AutoIncorrect · 30/12/2020 16:52

Throw them away. Risk of botulism.

yankeedoodledandee · 30/12/2020 16:53

Your friend gave you them because they couldn't be bothered putting them in their own bin.

winterbabythistime · 30/12/2020 16:53

I'd just bin them

SantasBritchesSpelleas · 30/12/2020 16:55

What's in them? I once ate a tin of tomatoes that was 17 years past its use-by date and all was good.

Somanysocks · 30/12/2020 16:55

If you wouldn't feed your dog with them you shouldn't feed the wildlife either.

Exactly what I was thinking!!!

"GIVE ME MY MEAT!"

TipsieM · 30/12/2020 17:06

Bin them.

AramintaJames · 30/12/2020 17:07

Are people really incapable of making a decision like this?

katy1213 · 30/12/2020 17:10

If they're not blown, they'll be fine.

Lisibeth81 · 30/12/2020 17:31

They're meat. Chicken stew. Hot pot.. cant remember others but all meat and I dont eat meat.

needs another 20 years before ashens will eat them Wink

Tempusfudgeit · 30/12/2020 21:12

My first video of his was Ashens' 50 year old chicken in a can Shock How is that man not dead?!
