Foods are "sterilized" before they leave the production facility, but that process is NOT perfect.
After a certain length of time, it IS possible for bacteria to grow, even in a perfectly sealed containers, thus spoiling the food AND causing you to contract food poisoning.
The manufacturer will GUARANTEE the food be healthy and safe ONLY up until the expiration date. After that, the food could become contaminated, and it should be thrown away. note that if you eat "expired" food and get sick, you will have NO legal recourse against the manufacturer!
Still, the sterilization is pretty good, and foods are often good after their expiration date, IF the package has not been opened.
The food is more than three months beyond the expiration date, it needs to de destroyed, no matter HOW it looks to you.
