if it doesn't smell bad...
I've picked the mold off of bread and then made a sandwich before.....but that was when I was in college and poor as hell.....
What did you eat? All I gotta say is, WATCH OUT FOR DAY OLD BERYANI. I thought I was going to die, for real.
But once I ate a fat piece of apricot pie, then when going to cut another slice, noticed that there was green fuzz in numerous areas. But I'm still here :::knock on wood:::
I buy meat, fish and vegetables right before I'm going to cook them and make sure the meat and fish were cut and packed that day. I will NEVER eat any packaged foods past the expiration date. As soon as it hits that date, in the trash it goes.
Ohhh it was cheese one time,bad sausage at school another(half the school was off!!!),but the worst was a bad takeaway in Manchester, was the illest I have ever been! Felt like my stomach was trying to climb out of my mouth for twelve hours followed by being so weak I couldn't stand up for three days...
Probably why i wasn't engaged in college, then...
I am real paranoid. I have drank rotten milk many times by mistake. Sometimes I won't touch dairy two days before the expiration. Shit scares me. I constantly worry about this.
Now I'm all worried about some shit I ate two hours ago. WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS THREAD?!?!

i remember back when i was in 3rd grade one of my classmates gave me his hostess cupcake (chocolate w/ the white swirl) i knew it was shady cause he wasnt the nicest kid. im not sure if i noticed the mold or not but i started mowing that thing. i threw that cupcake down and ran out the classroom to the bubbler. i didnt puke, but it affected me for life. i no longer indulge in those naSTY ass cakes or eat anything past the exp date.
yeah, I've had food poisoning twice. once from a restraunt & once when a refridgerator broke. Definitely one of the worst sicknesses I've had.
I'll happily eat pretty much anything that's out of date apart from chicken.
You sound like my old flatmate, would trawl through the fridge and eat anything out of date, he would just microwave it first saying "Aw, that will kill anything wrong with it !" Funny thing though, he used to get the worst gas ever, go figure...
I SIMPLY WON'T. NEVER!
I do all the time. I eat food that sits out all night. Chicken, fish, whatever. I never get sick. Its fine. Americans are pussies when it come to food past its exp date. Eat that shit.
I mean, food does not go bad from one day to the next - it's in a constant process of degeneration. The day a piece of fruit is picked, or a gallon of milk is bottled, it actually starts rotting.
With this in mind, I wager you could safely eat most food past the expiration date.
I've actually had food go bad before the expiration date, so the date is merely a rule of thumb, at best.
Stuff like non refrigerated keeping of food can be ok. And anything well cooked will be ok
Chicken in Peru was this steez
Eating with families and a lot of backpacking and trekking has taught me not to be a lil bitch about food, China-Peru-Senegal street foods has trained me and my stomach.
A lot is mental and people that throw out shit super fast should reconsider.
To each his own though
i kinda wish this had happened to me at some point... i gets busy on snack cakes... they taste fake, and they make me feel bad, but i'll still eat the whole box... cupcakes, twinkies, swiss rolls, zebra cakes, any of that shit
she did throw away the jar of breadcrumbs they were living in though.
OH MY DEAR GOD!
Both go bad, but it takes a while.
There are expiration dates printed on egg cartons and bacon packages. Just read the dates folls!
dont know why.
