    i'd unwrap and see what it looks/smells like.. you will know if it is off.. for all it is smoked!

    And feeding vermin is illegal and rightly so! There was some old biddy fined for feeding the rats here.

    No but I wouldn't bin them altogether. I'd put them on the garage roof for the pigeons.

    Thanks for the answer but I'm definitely not feeding pigeons. They've already had at least 1/2 the peas and beans I sowed this year.

    Thanks. I think you're right but in the end I didn't even try the sniff test. I knew even if they smelled OK my mind would be telling me "Seven days is just too long", and would make me feel queasy.

    2 or 3 days I might have tried them but 7 just seemed a step too far.

    I have some goats cheese that is 3 days past its date. Is it still OK to eat and if so, how much longer have I got to eat it before it goes off? It was bought to go into a goats cheese tart. Hard cheese I generally ignore the dates and cut off the mould as it appears (did this as a student and the habit has stuck) but I'm not sure about soft cheeses.

    Thank you

    I would eat it raw with grapes, if unsure stick it in an omelet or on a pizza.

    Give it a good sniff. That's what my dad always taught me and he was a food inspector.

    Does it have ingredients in it that go off quickly? How strong is your stomach?

    I'd more than likely eat it, but then I'll eat most things.
