Out of date teabags

Oh wise MNers I'm not sure on this one so I'm appealing to your collective wisdom!
Teabags went out of date Nov 2024, there's enough left that I'd finish them around mid Feb. Are they "safe" to drink or should I bin them? I do have more so I wouldn't be without a cuppa

YABU bin them

YANBU give your head a wobble, they are fine to drink go put the kettle on

No it didn’t, if you are going to pop up and be rude for no reason once it’s all resolved please atleast read it properly. Poster L (can’t be bothered spelling that every time) said ‘ffs and pearl clutching’ OP took offence, i said I didn’t think they meant it that badly as OP talked about head wobbling in her Op. Me and OP were totally fine and had some tea. New poster quoted me and disagreed with me about L not being rude. I said I was just giving a different perspective on poster Ls comment as OP read it as offensive but I didn’t. It’s not that hard to understand. It would be really bizarre if I started as poster L and then made a new account (which is 12+ years old) to then give a different perspective on myself. What exactly do you want from me?

😂 I don’t want anything from you. I’m acknowledging that your reply made it confusing and sounded like you were replying as the other poster, as that is what moreNetflix was referring to.

But was it nice?

I only drink Yorkshire tea, with oat milk.

Let us know if you you’re still alive tomorrow. 😅

I've had 5 cuppas today so tomorrow will either be interesting or more likely a total normal day lol

As they’re only a few weeks out of date, I think they will be good.

Someone I used to work with said she’d been unknowingly drinking tea which was something like 6 years out of date at her nans house. She did say it tasted funny but she thought it was just a brand she wasn’t used to. 🤣

I’ve read the whole thread and understand. It sounds as though you were replying as lanzarotelady. Not saying you are her, but by saying ‘I’was just giving another perspective’ when morenetflix was saying the post from Lanzarotelady was rude, it sounded like you were answering as Lanzarotelady.

I thought the same when I read it.

@Lanzarotelady was unnecessarily rude to a lighthearted OP.

Just thought I'd post an update to let you know I'm still alive 😂 I feel completely normal and I'm on my 2nd cuppa so far today (DS4 woke me at 4.20am so I look like death)
