Ever eat expired food? I'm making expired potato soup mix

It expired on the 5th and today is the 8th so it's no big deal. It's a dry mix anyway

Definitely. You can eat canned goods such as canned veggies as long as the can is not dented and is not leaking or rusty for up to 2 years after expiration. Dry mix soup? That is still good 18 to 24 months past expiration date.

Here's a whole article about it.

And eggs can still be used for making pancakes and in mixes even past the 4 week mark.

@SW-User Yup...just remember, if it's been processed, the expiration dates are just suggestions.

@4meAndyou Eggs can put in water to check for freshness, if they float they are too old. I have kept them for as long as 6 weeks with no problems at all. Someone here argued with me that a case of 60 would spoil before they could get eaten. We have used 16 eggs since Friday. They are not going to spoil. If it was just me and I ate 2 eggs a day for a month they would all get eaten for the end of the month.
