If there is one thing that I’m particular about involving my food it is usually expiration dates especially with meat and dairy. Now, I was just informed earlier this week by a friend that you can drink milk up to almost a week after its expiration date. If that’s the case, shouldn’t they just change the expiration date? This friend used to work at an ice cream shop so I trust her. Lately though, the poor college student in me has decided to not care so much the particulars. I drank that milk AFTER the printed expiration date and I most certainly ate the smoked salmon for dinner that should not have been eaten “five days after being opened.”
Was this a good idea considering that Fall Ball is tomorrow and I’ve got an extreme fear of food poisoning? The chance was taken. We’ll see how I feel tomorrow. Are any of you as conscious about expiration dates as I am…was?
