_Rinku_ 05/03/17 6:09:09 PM #5:	Yeah. Most "use by" and "best by" dates are overly conservative anyway. Trust your senses: does the food look and smell fresh? If so, it's probably safe to eat. <cite>_Rinku_ posted [p:878416379] in Can you ea... [t:75308282]...</cite> <quote>Yeah. Most "use by" and "best by" dates are overly conservative anyway.

ZeldaMutant 05/03/17 6:24:16 PM #19:	_Rinku_ posted... Yeah. Most "use by" and "best by" dates are overly conservative anyway. Trust your senses: does the food look and smell fresh? If so, it's probably safe to eat. It's illegal to serve food after the "use by" date, even if it looks fine. You can eat it yourself at your own risk, but a restaurant would be shut down if they tried to give it to customers. "Best by" is an estimate and it's fine to use stuff even after that has passed, if it's still in good condition. --- 96065 <cite>ZeldaMutant posted [p:878417281] in Can you ea...
