It is the Sell by Date, not the Eat by Date. Most foods have a sell by date with the expectation that it will be used in a reasonable amount of time afterwards, not that it will be eaten that day. Dry goods may be perfectly fine for months. Dairy products are usually good for a week to ten days without any problem and can go longer.
If you are not a child or a pregnant woman, then it mightbe safe to eat refrigerated fish one day after the use by date... but I wouldn't go past that.
Yup.
I wouldn't eat it......
Yes, most Tinned/sealed food is safe to eat. The only time that it isn't safe to eat is if the "Use by date" has expired
Sushi and maki rolls are normally expected to be used the day they are purchased. They are a food that is designed to eat fresh, not stored. Some would say that such products made with raw fish are never safe to eat.
It is not safe to eat sour cream past the expiration date as it may contain harmful bacteria that can cause food poisoning.
Yes in the US the most common date seen is not the so called expiration date it is a sell by date. There is no expiration date required on US foods, except for infant formula. The USDA has no idea how you plan to store your food. Some food can last for years if stored properly.So think of it like this, could you think of a reason why a store would sell food that is going to expire the same day they sell it.For instance milk is typically good for 7 days after the SELL by date if kept cool.
Sell-by is the date the store is supposed to be responsible for getting rid of it by. Use-by is the date guranteed safe to eat by, but they are supposed to be moddest and last beyond the expiration date (the use-by date).
Yes, it is safe to eat the food.
Yes. I would recommend eating it by the sell by or eat by date
It all depends whether it is a sell by date, use by date, or a best before date. If it is a sell by, then that would be an earlier date than an 'eat by' date so it would probably be OK. If it is a best before, then it probably won't taste as good but will still be safe; if it is after a use by date then it may not be safe so you shouldn't eat it.
It is probably safe to eat hummus if opened after the Best Sell By date, as this is the date the manufacture suggests to have it off the shelves by. However, if you see fungus on the product, don't eat it - it has already spoiled and trying to scrape away the fungus to get to the hummus that still looks good can make you sick.
