Depends how far after the expiration date, just a short time it is probably okay. One way to tell is if the color is faded, the flavor is weak and it doesn't really smell like it used to, it is time to throw it out. If it still smells strong, tastes like cinnamon and isn't faded it should still be good.
If the production and/or date codes are not legible, you cannot tell what the expiration date is.

You can tell if eggs are bad by checking the expiration date, smelling for a sulfur-like odor, and observing the appearance of the egg white and yolk. If the eggs are past the expiration date, smell bad, or have discolored or runny whites and yolks, they are likely bad and should not be consumed.
Look for wierd behaviors and such, and check the expiration date just to be sure.
