If you have beers that are a week out of date, do you throw those in the trash? Blasphemy!

I keep it until it goes bad, which is always a date well beyond the expiration date on the package. The expiration date on the package is the date the store needs to have it sold by, it doesn't apply to the consumer. There are sell by dates on some and best by dates on others. Sell/freeze by is also seen. Just depends on the type of food, I think. Plus #1. Totally depends on the type of food.

This Sunday we finished off a gallon of milk that had a February 4 expiration date. It had been in a garage refrigerator that kept it nearly frozen, in a slushy state.

I just made poppers this weekend with cream cheese that expired March 13th. Nobody got sick that I know of. BUT.... When my daughter was in preschool, we were supposed to send snacks for a party. My wife started making strawberry cupcakes and noticed the vegetable oil was expired. And I mean REAL expired. Like a year or something. She asked if oil goes bad. I was like, nahhhhh. It'll be alright. Anyway, when we picked my kid up later that day, the teacher commented that a good portion of the class had been throwing up something pink. Pretty sure the statute of limitations has run out so I can fess up. lol!

This is the missus's department. My department is haulin out the trash. I made the mistake of questioning a very heavy trash bag once, that had tons of canned goods, mayonaise, mustard, etc. in it. I see nothing and I say nothing now.

I check everything. If it's on the date or past date it goes on the trash, I don't take chances What he said.

If it’s a “wet†food I toss it close to the expiration date, dry stuff like the rice I will extend This, also just because it is in date, I always look at canned goods to make sure the lid if flat. I have seen canned goods that were in date with the lid starting to bow up. This is an automatic trip to the trash can.
