I'm no expert but fairly sure no :o
It's in a tin and that is a best before date
If it helps I don't think I'd have given it a second thought and I am not laid back about that sort of thing usually
now if it had beena yoghurt...

No. As long as the can hadn't "blown" or dented outwards will be fine from BBdate point of view.

Stop drinking diet coke though. Fucking dreadful stuff.

BBE is best before end not use by. It'll be fine. But as Pag says - dreadful stuff. At least the full fat stuff has sugar not sweenter crap!

Coke has a used-by date? Surely it doesn't have any natural ingredients that could go off?

at Tortoise! I always have a secret smile when I read the label where it says 'with vegetable extract'!
