    Like best before on Vinegar! :rotfl:

    We have a packet of rock salt with a best before date! And, no, it's not millions of years in the future.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    What do you all think this is about.

    Decanter about fifteen years old, maybe a bit less, no knock (I.e. no cat foot prints in the dust) was fine on Friday might as was found like this on Saturday morning

    You haven't been torturing cherubs too have you? Saw this house earlier on the Have a Look at This! thread and wondered if they'd escaped:

    Seriously, no paw prints. Plenty of dust still :o:D, and nothing else disturbed

    I'm wondering of its a temperature change thing? Its not an extreme temperature though, which seems like that's barking up the wrong tree....

    Has the decanter ever been knocked previously?

    My in laws had a glass chopping board explode when no=one was in the room. Apparently it is possible for glass to be damaged but the breakage occur at a later point.

    We hardly eat eggs and so generally apply the float test rather than going by the date on the carton. Milk we do tend to respect the date though, yoghurt will get thrown out if it is more than 2 days over but we try and eat it up when it gets close anyway. Bread we use till it tastes funny.

    But then we probably throw away less than 2% of what we buy although I am now being a little careful of always making the kids clear their plates because we also don't want an obesity thang...

    Out-of-date chocolate. Yeah, that'll happen. It's like those recipes to use up leftover wine.

    Almost certainly. I'm clumsy now and knock things a lot.

    :(
    That must be it.
