sesame oil best before Aug 2010, can I still use it?

[CurlyhairedAssassin]

I'd be grateful if someone could answer this quick - am about to do some egg fried rice and was going to use the sesame oil in it. Will it still be ok? It smells ok......

well i would use it...

And are you generally a risk-taker?

Have a taste, if it smells and tastes OK I'd use it.
Think it goes rancid and smells obviously so when it's no good anymore.

I would smell taste it first. If ok then use it, it won't kill you

I would, it is "best Before" not "Will Kill You After".

just tasted it, it seems ok (not that I've ever tasted it on its own before, like). I'm going to use it. Even though I had an upset stomach on Friday and Saturday. [living dangerously]

Thanks, all!

Good luck
