>> Expired Food..

[black orb]

>>> Do you have problems with expired food?..
I always get sick because I never pay attention to the expiring dates (its a pain).. I also make the mistake to buy food and store it for months, and I hate to throw my precious food to the trash can..

I hate to buy milk. Only because it expires in like a week and half, so I feel that I have to drink it or waste it (which I hate).

[rubah]

then buy smaller quantities of milk.

They sell it in pints quarts and gallons after all!

My friend who worked at McDonalds for the best part of a year was sharing at lunch yesterday about how they left meat on a shelf for long periods of time, longer than they were supposed too;o The place I work sacrifices time for quality and cooks everything right thenxD

>>> I have the same problem, I like milk, fruits, tomato sauce, etc.. All the good stuff expires quickly and im not willing to go to the grocery store/supermarket that often..

There's a trick how to keep fruits fresh especially opened ones. I think it involves a bowl of charcoal.

Milk. I have problems with that too especially Fresh Milks. They'd smell like everything rotten in the world when expired.

Once I drank really, really old milk...and it was delicious. I named it cottage cheese and made lots of money.

Other then that, my bananas become black the second I look away from them. Damn bananas.

I drank expired milk before and ever since then, I've had a semi-phobia about expired food. If I even suspect that something might be expired, I won't touch it. Even if it's not past the expiration date, I still won't touch it if I think it's been in the fridge too long. So a lot of times, I chuck things that were perfectly fine to eat just cause I don't want to risk it.

Ah yes, that wilty banana! :D
Nothing can ever make that stubborn fruit become fresh again.

I've seen people microwave stale potato chips to make them seem fresh. The first couple times my friend did it, it was okay (though I didn't eat any), then he put a batch in too long, and, well, chips burn fast in the microwave. At least he wasn't dumb enough to put the foil bag in the microwave. That would've sucked!

*laughs at thread starter*...sorry, hmmm just eat your foods as soon as you get 'em. And yes, thank god for "expiring date" prints.

My bananas are in my tummy the moment I leave the grocery store. In fact, sometimes all out cashier has to scan is the peel. :3

I only have problems with stale rice. It's a very bad thing to eat stale rice.
And the thing about rice is that if you leave it out in the open it gets stale very quickly and you can't really tell if it's stale or not.
Luckily I've only seen someone die of stale rice. :D (just kidding)
But I saw someone in much pain because of it!! )<

Expired apple juice has a kinda soda-y taste to it o_0 But my parents made me drink that when I was younger cos' they didn't wanna waste it D=

Me, I always check expiration dates :</>D I'm picky... I don't eat stuff that has been sitting there opened for too long either, even if it doesn't expire... like cereal O_O;; I'm afraid that a spider or cockroach will have crawled into it... or something creepy like that.

OMG to your parents! D=
