I'm hungry and there are no good shops open within a five mile radius. The mozarella I was banking on has been STOLEN.
Tesco Finest pork ragu pasta, expired July 30th. Edible?
To eat or not to eat?

Smell it. If it smells bad don't eat it.cdd wrote:I'm hungry and there are no good shops open within a five mile radius. The mozarella I was banking on has been STOLEN.

I would help more, but I can't smell it from here.

petrol stations normally have a fatty surprise in the refrigerator, such as one of those artery clogging ginsters pastries.

Your nose is always the best judge. After all, "use by" dates are relatively new, and people survived long before refrigerators.cdd wrote:Oh, hello.
Well I ate it and I'm still alive! (So far...)
It did smell OK which I used as my guide, I'm sure they exagerrate the dates on those things anyway
Funny, chatting to my mum she told me that she used to ask her mum to sniff food to give it the thumbs up - and now we all ask mum to do that (when we're in her house, that is).
And then I head someone saying exactly the same thing on the telly, not so many days ago.
