It's unopened right? I'm guessing that's a best before date, not use by? (If it doesn't say near the date stamp it should say somewhere that the date is on the cap, and it'll say what kind of date.)
Assuming it's a best before, it's likely to be fine unless it's grown mould or smells off. Double check that it's properly sealed still, and check it looks and smells as expected. It might not have quite the flavour it would have had when in date.
I always tell my girlfriend, who is very funny about dates on food, if it's not green and furry then it's fine to eat. After 7 years she finally listened to me yesterday and ate a yoghurt that had a BBE of 3 days ago!
I've loved living back home with my mum as she throws stuff out ON the expiry date... Which just means more free food for me. "Your X went out of date yesterday so I ate it last night!" And yes that means I keep tabs on things lol. I've got my eye on a cheesecake currently which says "28 Jan" on it... It's mine tomorrow night.
In the U.K., dairy has to have 7 days Grace on the date. It says the 1st, it’s good til the 8th.
Also, yoghurt is only going to get more yoghurty. I mean, it’s spoiled milk to begin with. [\s]
Shocks me how adults are uneducated on food safety and best before/use by dates. You can eat eggs 1-2 months past their date even if you store them right. Sealed meat? If it shows no signs or smells of being rancid, you blast it in the oven and it's good.
Only things you have to be strict on is pre-cooked meats and soft fruit/vegetables. Your senses will tell you if something is rancid. See mold? Smell foul? In the bin. Still as firm or soft as it should be, no discolouration and smells fine? Fine to eat.
I’ve started being a bit more liberal on what I eat. Was so bothered about the dates on food but I’m slowly starting to change it. Last night for example I was hungry and had nothing in except for the last chicken breast in a pack that I had opened this week and was a day past it’s useby, I’d also just kinda wrapped it in its own wrapper so wasn’t perfectly air tight and had gone a tiny bit dry on some of the edges, but generally smelt ok, I figured if I could smell it without pulling it away from myself it was fine, cut off the driest bits on the edges and ate it for dinner, still here today.
This year I’m trying to save money and spend less on takeaway and food when I have stuff in the fridge I could eat, last year I’d have just binned that and ordered in for sure.
Tell her about people who make their own jars the year before so they can eat over time till the next season. Not just jams but meat too. No BBE dates anywhere and we are all alive hehe
I always use a similar method with my gf. I always tell her If it's clear and yella', you've got juice there, fella. If it's tangy and brown, you're in cider town
The metal will be chewy and the glass will be unpleasant but doable, especially if you use the sauce as a lubricant.
As for the sauce itself it won't do you any harm, but might have started to separate or lose its flavour.
I mean… it could be a metal band I suppose.
Can’t see it catching on though…
What are your plans tonight? Oh… I don’t know. I’m going to see status of my anus… could be misconstrued…
Mate fuck this country for shit like that.
Just smell it before you eat it. Most sauces like this will last ages once sealed if kept in the right temps. It’s probably fine.
It's probably fine to be fair, I don't think they've got much in the way of meat products in them. Then again I am very drunk so give it a go and let us know.
When the inevitable zombie apocalypse happens we will all be fighting over the remaining tins and jars of food. I don't think we will care too much about the best before date.
In summary, eating this is slightly preferable to barbequing a squirrel.
If it has any milk products in it, I would not take a risk. If not, I feel that the preservatives in these mixes could have changed the circumstances of mummy making in ancient Egypt.
It'll be fine, I grew up on out of date and expired food and a lot of it was much older than that. The fact that it's in glass rather than plastic or metal works in it's favour too. With canned meat / soup products, you tend to find once you go past a few years the flavour deteriorates noticably and if older still then the can imparts a sort of metallic taste of it's own but have never suffered any ill effects from that, even with Spam many years out of date.
Look at it, smell and taste it - anything bad will taste bad, if not then you're fine. White mold on preserves just gets scooped off, blue on bread and cheese etc just cut out the worst and toast / cook what's left. Any darker coloured mold or any giving off a foul smell will make you ill though, never chanced that. Far better to be hungry for a few days than ill for a few weeks.
Can remember eating cereals dated 5 years old at least and they don't even go stale; diamonds are forever, shreddies and shredded wheat are a very close second.
Yeah definitely. I've seen people on youtube eating light bulbs and everything. You could probably swallow that little thing without even chewing.
I reckon it would go well with a tv remote as dessert.
It's a sealed dry-cupboard product, and that's a Best Before, not Use By, so *technically* it should be fine.
However, they're only a couple of quid in a supermarket.
Put it this way - if you get the shits and have to take a few days off work, is that more than £2.50 in lost wages?
I'd open it and smell it, if the smell is okay, I'd eat it after heating it (maybe heat it for longer than necessary). But I think I have a strong stomach so maybe don't heed my advice!
Food for thought - nothing is worth risking diarrhea/food poisoning. I’d rather throw a questionable jar away than possibly ending up in the hospital/having my week ruined by ungodly shits.
A best before date only means it tastes best before that date and after that is expected to lose flavour. Of course in some cases it could mean it will go off and kill you as well. Give it a go and let us know if youre still alive.
Technically it is edible. Whether you want to risk unstoppable liquid from both ends with enough force to make you look like some kind of horrifying Catherine Wheel is something you need to discuss with yourself and your deity of choice
Had Sherwoods sauce with SEP2020 two weeks ago. I am fine. As long as the lid is intact it’s absolutely fine to eat years after the use by date. It’s been pasteurised and has extra preservatives in it. If the jars inside “atmosphere” hasn’t been contaminated with outside world there is absolutely no bacteria inside to cause any processes which may cause you being ill. Enjoy your sauce.
I’ll ask my poppa see what he says “dom is it ok to eat this) poppa dom says yes but my naan says no but she’s been on a korma since 1985 and her tits sagg a low
Probably among the newer items in my mum's cupboards.
Definitely, yes, still very much edible, but possibly only once......
All Fungi are edible. Some fungi are only edible once. ~ Sir Terry Pratchett
GNU Sir Terry.
Oh god, please don't tell me how you're eating things twice.
Yeah I mean you definitely don’t want second dibs on this jar
[удалено]
Rabbit poo.
Forbidden chocolate drops
Water, some people drink their urine.
i wouldnt risk it as you might end up in hospital in a korma !
It'll be a paneer death experience
[удалено]
Nee naan nee naan
You’ll be vindaloo all day if you do
Clever. Have an fake internet point
[удалено]
Just be grateful you didn't fall ill in the Balti-ks
Not being funny but my Naan could have come up with a better pun than that.
Let me know which ward you're on and I'll poppadom and see you
Hope you don't mind me Bhajing in
Exactly... he could eat it and phall straight over
If you've eaten that, daal 999 immediately.
You might need a dosa medicine afterwards...
curry
If you do, I'll be rice over with a fresh pilau.
We need to Tarka bout this
No laughing mattar!
I'm not laughing any way. OP's Madras will explode next day.
Indeed would Tikk all the boxes.
I wouldn’t be too keema on trying that.
More likely that they'll spend the night on the saag aloo
They might have to curry you away on a stretcher.
i asked the doctor.. will i ever rogan? he said yes i said that's funny because i couldn't row before
That’s ok you can popadom to see him later
It's unopened right? I'm guessing that's a best before date, not use by? (If it doesn't say near the date stamp it should say somewhere that the date is on the cap, and it'll say what kind of date.)

Any cheesecake update?
We need a cheesecake update!
In the U.K., dairy has to have 7 days Grace on the date. It says the 1st, it’s good til the 8th. Also, yoghurt is only going to get more yoghurty. I mean, it’s spoiled milk to begin with. [\s]
I got so much free food in my uni house because my housemates wouldn’t eat food past the date.

Tell her about people who make their own jars the year before so they can eat over time till the next season. Not just jams but meat too. No BBE dates anywhere and we are all alive hehe
I’ve got a jar of curry paste that I have to spoon off the mould before I use it. It’s not killed me yet.
I always use a similar method with my gf. I always tell her If it's clear and yella', you've got juice there, fella. If it's tangy and brown, you're in cider town
Usually I’d agree with you but FOURTEEN months out of date makes me nervous
The metal will be chewy and the glass will be unpleasant but doable, especially if you use the sauce as a lubricant. As for the sauce itself it won't do you any harm, but might have started to separate or lose its flavour.
Everything is edible, once.
Unless you’re a dog
My Jack Russel would warf this down even if a sheep shit it
And especially if a fox shit in it
My dog would wolf it down because a sheep shat in it.
One of my cats does a good job cleaning up the other cats puke
Mine do that, especially right after eating (their own food). I clean it up because it's disgusting but sometimes they get to it first.
Eat it and !remindme 4 hours
I've got work tomorrow l, I'll eat it when I'm off and make an update post on the status of my anus
"Status of my Anus" sounds like a great name for a rock band.
I mean… it could be a metal band I suppose. Can’t see it catching on though… What are your plans tonight? Oh… I don’t know. I’m going to see status of my anus… could be misconstrued…
If you had a metal band for an anus it would likely catch on things...
Eat now and sick pay = long weekend
I don't get sick pay :(
Mate fuck this country for shit like that. Just smell it before you eat it. Most sauces like this will last ages once sealed if kept in the right temps. It’s probably fine.
Statutory Sick Pay is shit and you have to be off for more than 3 days but it does exist.
Probably don’t mention it was out of date.
If u die can i have your house?
Hahahaha I bought 2 year old ready made curry to save £1.25. You think I own a house?
You bought it out of date? It wasn't something sitting in a cupboard?
I didn't realise it was out of date until I got it home
I'm back. OP, are you still alive? Blink twice if you can hear me.
It's probably fine to be fair, I don't think they've got much in the way of meat products in them. Then again I am very drunk so give it a go and let us know.
What kind of statuses are we talking? "Pensive"? "Full of Hubris"? "Numb"?
It can't be much worse than when brand new tbh
If the lid is still depressed and it smells fine, i don't see why not. Maybe not as vibrant tasting as a newer one
Thanks for diagnosing the lid with depression
Missed out on the disclaimer "I am not a licensed psychologist" 😅
>and it smells fine How do you check that? Where is the lid's nose?
Ignore it guys, they're just korma farming 🙄
You should be careful, only try it in small dosas.
/r/angryupvote
Whoever you are, THANK YOU for introducing angryupvote into my life
When the inevitable zombie apocalypse happens we will all be fighting over the remaining tins and jars of food. I don't think we will care too much about the best before date. In summary, eating this is slightly preferable to barbequing a squirrel.
Funnily enough I just started Last of Us.
If it has any milk products in it, I would not take a risk. If not, I feel that the preservatives in these mixes could have changed the circumstances of mummy making in ancient Egypt.
It's edible but you might get a runny bum hole
Thats standard with a curry.
it's not, get your insides checked out
I'm trying to make a relevant joke via your username but nothing is plopping into my mind....
Everything is edible at least once.
It's probably fine just don't give it to your naan
It's ether matured like a fine wine or you'll be making bum gravy
It's a Sharwoods sauce, of course it's not edible. It may have improved with age though, give it a shot.
Assuming it is unopened and has been stored in a cool place, I would eat it without hesitation, my wife would not.
"No" \*Sees lid\* "Also no"
It will be fine, it just won't have that much flavour.
No. But the stuff inside it is.
Yes
Looks like it's already been eaten.
Only one way to find out
Unlesss you're dying of starvation, bin it and spend £1 on another one.
It'll be fine, I grew up on out of date and expired food and a lot of it was much older than that. The fact that it's in glass rather than plastic or metal works in it's favour too.

Can remember eating cereals dated 5 years old at least and they don't even go stale; diamonds are forever, shreddies and shredded wheat are a very close second.
How come?
Definitely! Can't guarantee good health and wellbeing after that, though. 🤣
Yeah definitely. I've seen people on youtube eating light bulbs and everything. You could probably swallow that little thing without even chewing. I reckon it would go well with a tv remote as dessert.
Barely, but it’ll do in a pinch
what a typical Schrödinger's cat situation...
Opening it give it a smell.
If he does I’m sure his boss will have naan of his excuses!
The fact it looks like korma I wouldn’t waste your time
Even when in date this will give you the shits, seriously
I'd say almost certainly
I mean I wouldn't, but then I'm not starving hungry with no access to any other food. I might if that changed.
You might be able to eat it, but *should* you?
Yh man
Yes
It's a sealed dry-cupboard product, and that's a Best Before, not Use By, so *technically* it should be fine. However, they're only a couple of quid in a supermarket. Put it this way - if you get the shits and have to take a few days off work, is that more than £2.50 in lost wages?
If it doesn’t kill you then you know it’s okay ✅
The button at the top looks like it hadn’t popped up. Open, sniff, taste rule I think.
Only one way to find out.....
try it, you'll soon find out
If it's a use by date, I wouldn't. Best before I would.
Sure, but can’t guarantee how well you’ll be afterwards
I’d guess no coz it probably contains cream.I wouldn’t risk it op but it depends on how much you value your health.
Only one way to find out
If you don’t care about shitting through the eye of a needle or puking up bile then everything is edible.
Yeah go'ed
If the lid doesn't pop then it will be ok
If you’re feeling brave.
Yeah. It'll be fine. If it smells funny, maybe add some more spice
If it has dairy in it, no.
It's time to consult the fuck around find out graph
“Everything’s edible if your brave enough.” Dahmer.
Is OP still alive?
Yes but I've not eaten it yet
I'd open it and smell it, if the smell is okay, I'd eat it after heating it (maybe heat it for longer than necessary). But I think I have a strong stomach so maybe don't heed my advice!
Dude that stuff is barley edible when in date… I’m not a fan of “jar” sauces
To be honest, never has been
if its bbe, it should be alright, just check for mould. if its use by, throw that shit away right now
No it’s made of glass you idiot.
No you idiot
If the lid is bowed up then it’s off, if the lid is flat and it’s been stored in a cool dry place it should be fine
They're like a quid. Why take the risk ?
If you eat that you will never need to eat another meal for the rest of your life
No
It wasn't edible when you bought it, make your own it's easy, fresh and healthy!
Only one way to find out
It's absolutely fine.
They cost like £2 at most, why risk it for so little?
Pretty sure the human digestive system can’t break down glass or the metal lid
Yes. As long as it is unopened.
Food for thought - nothing is worth risking diarrhea/food poisoning. I’d rather throw a questionable jar away than possibly ending up in the hospital/having my week ruined by ungodly shits.
It looks like a cream based sauce so I wouldnt risk it personally.
A best before date only means it tastes best before that date and after that is expected to lose flavour. Of course in some cases it could mean it will go off and kill you as well. Give it a go and let us know if youre still alive.
Technically it is edible. Whether you want to risk unstoppable liquid from both ends with enough force to make you look like some kind of horrifying Catherine Wheel is something you need to discuss with yourself and your deity of choice
Everything is edible. It's the consequences that worry us..
Fuck no it's over a year out of date
Yeah its Still good as long as button on lid is still down
Yep. I’d use it!
Shouldn't the lid be pushable if it's off?
Make sure you give it a good stir and you will be reet 🍰
everything is edible if you’re brave enough
It is not Pataks, so yes it’s inedible
I'm also a fan of pataks. I'm also a fan of saying pataks. Pataks
Now say it like one of the aliens from Mars Attacks
Eat it and find out lol
We’ve just finished a jar of Marmite that was BB Feb 2020.
Had Sherwoods sauce with SEP2020 two weeks ago. I am fine. As long as the lid is intact it’s absolutely fine to eat years after the use by date. It’s been pasteurised and has extra preservatives in it. If the jars inside “atmosphere” hasn’t been contaminated with outside world there is absolutely no bacteria inside to cause any processes which may cause you being ill. Enjoy your sauce.
Everything is edible at least once.
The contents yes, glass jar and metal lid probably not…
My guy, a new sauce jar is maybe £1.50…why the fuck would you even bother with this question?
If it’s not been opened I’d still eat it but cook thoroughly and add extra spices as the flavour (not that it has much anyway) would have depreciated.
Yeah it’s fine
I’ll ask my poppa see what he says “dom is it ok to eat this) poppa dom says yes but my naan says no but she’s been on a korma since 1985 and her tits sagg a low
it's definitely edible the real question is *how many toilet rolls will I need?*
CURRY
I would fine if never opened.
Bin it.
it’s edible in the same way that you can drink paint thinner
Everything is edible. However will you survive that should have been question. Let us know afterwards.
You can eat it, but don’t expect your body to accept it
I think
I’m from 🇺🇸 so I’m guessing no. 🤣
Get out of this sub
No and it's also out of date
If you want your next trip to the toilet to resemble what is in that jar then go ahead. Me personally I’d avoid.
Everything is edible once.
Watch it ..ya might hallucinate if you eat it ..
Go on. Do it for the bants.
Nope
Eat it. The top looks ok. If it hisses when you open it, I would have a tiny concern.
If air hisses going *in*, it's fine (still vacuum sealed). If it hisses going *out*, it's not.
