    I have used mayo that is 6 months old without any harm. Just keep it in the fridge.

    Agreed. It keeps in the fridge for ages.

    Yeah, go to Weatherspoons and appropriate some! I did a mystery shopping trip there on Tuesday. The meal was paid for, and the ketchup and mayonnaise went home in my bag LOL!

    Thanks everyone, I love the 5 finger shuffles some of you do :rotfl:

    It says on the jars, once opened use within a month? Normally I'd ignore it but as it has raw eggs, I'm not sure if it might cause a tummy bug?

    I'll go have a look on Approved Foods though, that's a brill idea, thanks! :cool:

    I suppose they have to put that on things but I never take much notice of it. I live on my own, so even the smallest of most things I can't always use within the time "stated".

    I tend to go by the smell and taste (and possibly if it's changed to a strange colour :eek:) and haven't had any problems yet.

    I remember once (when I was at home) taking a jar of tomato puree out the fridge and it smelt just like wine. That went in the bin :p

    Although mayonaisse is made with raw eggs if it has been put in a jar it has been treated and any bugs have more than likely been killed off.
    It's homemade mayo that I would worry about
