Brie cheese past eat-by date

smells & tastes rank. Is there anything I can do with it or is it straight into the bin?

About 11 days over dates, now.

Flipping heck, I'm surprised you need to ask!!

Bin it!

suzywong · 08/06/2005 13:50

you could let it develop in a warm cupboard and ask the WHO if they care to use it as a cure for SARS

bin it!

Bin it PLEASE. I can't believe you are asking the questions

Mum2girls · 08/06/2005 14:04

Just leave it be - it will crawl into the bin all by itself. If anyone eats this, I gurantee they will be violently ill.

motherinferior · 08/06/2005 14:10

Even I'd bin it.

Probably.

suzywong · 08/06/2005 14:11

you'd have it on toast with smoked fish before you could say "knife" MI, I know your sort

zebraZ · 08/06/2005 14:26

I did eat some and I wasn't violently ill... but I didn't want more (which is unusual for me, yes I am a bit of a dustbin).
If other cheeses go moldy I would cut off the mold & eat the remaining good bits, am not used to soft cheese (weirdly enough, brie was one of the few things I could keep down when morning sickness was at its worst with DD).
Thanks.

Bin. For sure.

Nightynight · 08/06/2005 14:54

Bet it wont kill.
Serve it up to your dh without telling him its out of date

WigWamBam · 08/06/2005 16:27

But if it smells rank, and tastes rank, why would you want to eat it anyway?

gingerbear · 08/06/2005 16:42

Gorganzola smells rank but tastes lovely though

WigWamBam · 08/06/2005 16:46

But this stuff apparently tastes rank as well ... and it's horrible enough at the best of times
