Out of date fish cakes

[toottootmummy]

Just discovered that my favourite fresh fish cakes are out of date by three days - use by date of 17th Aug.

If I cook them for lunch will they be ok?

Just hate wasting food / throwing it away!

I wouldn't risk fish tbh, not by 3 days.

Aren’t most fish cakes 70% potato and crumb anyway? Depending on the brand and just how much fish, they’d probably be okay. Give them a sniff and fry the hell out of them.

I'm very lax about dates-but not fish. No idea whether this is rational or not...

I'm extremely easy going about dates but not fish, oily fish like salmon last better but white fish goes off very fast so I wouldn't eat them. Smell should be a good indication.

If they smell okay, and they've been refrigerated the whole time, I wouldn't hesitate, tbh!

I wouldn't with fish.

I'd normally say smell & see - but not fish.
Throw them away

Not with fish
