Yes. That's a best before date. They put on so people will throw it out and buy more.

Store shelf life date...yes, 'use by" dates...generally not.

Depends on what it is, and how far past the expiration date it is.

Expiration dates aren’t when the food actually goes bad. It’s when the manufacturer thinks it’s no longest going to taste it’s peak best. Milk is good for a a good week or two past the expiration, eggs for a month or so, Beef at least a week, etc

@LegionIscariot Of course! To do otherwise is wasteful! I won’t eat it if it smells bad, but like I said, expiration’s dates aren’t when the food actually goes bad.

Why would you do that?
Getting sick is not worth it.

Never. Several years ago I got all my food from a food bank and I had enough rotten food to last the rest of my sad pitiful life.
If it seems okay yeah. Usually not milk though, that shit gets nasty sometimes even before its expiration date.
