I had a can of beer 2 years out of date - stuck at the back of the fridge. Empty the fridge, clean it, put everything back several times - never noticed the expiry date for 2 years!0

No item of food is going to know that its supposed to taste worse come the stroke of midnight on the date printed on it! (I'd always be wary of meat even before the date but regardless if it looks and smells ok it gets used!)
I used some Sugar Free jelly crystals the other day 2 years out of date. Ok, so they didn't dissolve quite as easily, but the jelly was perfectly edible!

woohoo parcel arrived, looks like it's been drop kicked a few times and the ciggie filter boxes have exploded but thanks to some good packaging the food is all fine. I got lemon cakes not the chocolate ones I'd ordered though

I wonder if Dan can claim the postage back though, it was dispatched on the 14th and didn't arrive til 4pm today :mad:0 -
My order arrived today and everything accounted for apart from a couple of things that were refunded - Green tea & Capri sun. Much appreciation Dan!! Can't wait to buy more!!!0
