Expiry dates

[dagdag]

Expiration date of the vehicle's warranty on your car/truck/suv is not relevant! You do not have to buy a new one

 

[islandman]

Where's yours located?

Don't worry, you're already in my will.

I can tell you right now that "everyone's kid" does not have size 14 feet. Just sayin'.

I've just noticed all the kids today have big feet between 11 and 13. Back in my day we had size nines and big feet were tens.

My ex wifes kids all their friends the kids in the hood and my girls kids all have huge feet.

Im telling you it's the hormones in the milk and beef they eat.

I "also" have a foot fetish but it has nothing to do with this. Im telling you the engineered food is causing weird growth in kids.

Put two big people together to create spawns? Feget about it!

(toss in red hair? Egads!) Egads on boys....on girls it's cool.

Expiration date on medicine would still work to a certain extent. It would not have the full effect, but sometimes you may have to go with what you have.

Medicine is a whole other kettle of fish. I'm much less likely to use that after an expiration date.

Don't worry, you're already in my will.

Let me guess, you're leaving me all you Giants stuff?

Sell by/best by/expires by dates are there to intimidate the retailer into slashing the price and buying more of their product to restock.

Obviously fresh things can mold, grow bacteria, and oils can go rancid. Canned and dry goods, properly stored will outlast a zombie apocalypse. That said, if you are a prepper: buy what you already eat, and rotate stock.

Beef that is a day or two past its expiration date and has just started to turn brown from bright red and is marked down for "quick sale" is one of the best bargains in the store. Grill (or freeze) it immediately. Turns an ordinary sirloin or flank steak into a tender morsel.

You certainly do NOT want to try this with chicken or pork, which is why those meats are never in the discount bin.

Last week:

Kid: Mom, you sent me yoghurt that expired in December.
Me: Did you eat it?
Kid: Yes
Me: Did it taste ok?
Kid: Yes
Me: Ok then.

I was born back in the day and I wear size 9. Huge for my height.

Nah, but It looks like you have huge assets based on your av.

What's the harm with ingesting a little "locally-raised" penicillin on top of your week-old avocado sandwich? It's naturally free healthcare!

Cowboy up, y'all!

I always get my meat from the discount bin. I have one of those vacuum sealers and seal and freeze.

Rimford - what's your av counting down to? Your next bowel movement?

My thinking is that they're just a suggestion. If it don't taste bad then it's still good.

Then again, there's nothing like a nice piece of milk.

Gross.

I think they are there for a reason.

Like to tell me not to eat something so I don't get ill and die. Plus, if it IS bad, then taste testing is horribly appetite ruining.

 

[Fata Morgana]

I don't pay much attention to the expiration dates. I should add though, a piece of milk is called Cheese in most English speaking countries.

Hahahaha. Nice one.

 

[MonaLittle]

Not paying attention to the expiration date on my vehicle sticker gets me into trouble.

As a kid, if something was passed it's fresh date, we'd just plug our noses and drink it fast.

lol Truth!

Condoms, too.

Pfft. You're not worthy.

you really don't have to. well, except for anti-biotics. most medicines, however, just lose about 10% of their potency every year after their expiration date. i mean, caution is obviously still required if you aren't sure, but if you need an aspirin and it's 6 months past the best by date it's perfectly fine to pop a couple and just wait to buy some new ones whenever it's convenient.

 

[Lord Pmann]

Expiry dates and sell by dates are different. One is sort of the "death" of the food. The other is more a suggestion.

I think the words "if it don't taste bad then it's still good" might not be the best mantra. I mean, lots of stuff that's bad for you doesn't taste bad. In fact, many things that are good for you taste like shit. (Cauliflower, broccoli or pretty much anything healthy)

 

[MonaLittle]

Condoms, too.

I never play Russian roulette.

Y'all eat weird things.

If we're still talking about food here, I've never been a picky eater. And, if you are dining at my house, I hope you have an open mind. I am an adventurous cook.

 

[doowdniw]

Sour cream: how do you really know when it's "off"?

 

[MonaLittle]

Don't judge Mona. She marches to her own beat.

Some might say that it's out of tune. I prefer to think of it as unique.
