Out of date Kyiv

I have a chicken Kyiv that I was planning to eat tonight for dinner, however, just noticed the date on it is 20th of January. Is this still okay to eat or should I bin?

I thought from the thread title this was going to be about Ukraine 🤣
Personally I'd eat if it was frozen and bin if it was fridge.

Isn’t it spelled Kiev?

HeBeaverandSheBeaver · 21/01/2023 13:57

It's one day. I'd eat it.

TeenagersAngst · 21/01/2023 13:57

Oh my god, it's one day 'out of date'. Just eat it!

We are NOT calling chicken kiev ‘chicken Kyiv’. That is wankery supreme. Stop.

Some packaging has changed so it would seem we are

One day out of date will be fine if it’s been in the fridge.

hadntbeen · 21/01/2023 14:00

So funny, I wrote on here a few weeks back about baked beans with chicken KIEV and spelt it KIEV and then people pulled me up for not spelling it KYIV. Can't win on Mumsnet honestly 😂

A) I'd eat it if it doesn't smell/have fur
B) Kiev is the Russian name for the city. Kyiv is the Ukrainian spelling.

Mamamia7962 · 21/01/2023 14:01

It will be fine. Eat it. I've eaten loads of stuff out of date and never been ill from it

not if you’re a virtue signaller

Or simply a Sainsbury's shopper.

Depends where you get them from. In M&S they are Kyiv's.

Eat it. Only 1 day

I'd eat it one day out of date

I’d better start singing songs from Miss Hoh Chi Min City and drinking Mumbai Sapphire with my tonic then.

I'd eat it op. If it smelt ok

TBF I haven’t had a chicken kiev since the 80s so I may be out of touch.

It does feel achingly virtue signally though.

Only whilst partaking of a Chicken Chennai.....

Hawkins001 · 21/01/2023 14:07

From personal experience, they are good to eat if kept in the fridge,

Flapjackquack · 21/01/2023 14:07

WTF, not using the Russian version is not wankery or virtue signalling given the current situation.

The chicken kyiv will be fine just smell it first. There is a bit of leeway built into use by dates as the chicken doesn’t know it’s meant to go off at midnight.
