Foods Which Can Be Consumed After the Expiry Date!

February 8, 2019 by Valerie Kirwin

A week after the expiration date, which is printed on the milk carton, it can remain drinkable and healthy. It is easy to notice if the milk’s taste, smell or appearance is not right.

Foods Which Can Be Consumed After the Expiry Date!

Shelf life of some foods, which by law must be clearly written on the product, is not a real indicator of the quality of food, claim some British experts. Most food is perfectly good to use after the expiration date on the label. They point out that the date is linked with the freshness of the ingredients, which after the expiry date are not harmful.

  1. Eggs

If stored properly in the fridge, then the eggs can last three to five weeks. Of course make sure to take out from the fridge as many eggs as you will use immediately because if you keep them at room temperature they will spoil fast.

  1. Milk

A week after the expiration date, which is printed on the milk carton, it can remain drinkable and healthy. It is easy to notice if the milk’s taste, smell or appearance is not right.

  1. Ketchup

If you keep ketchup in the fridge it can retain its quality for up to six months after the expiry date and is still safe for consumption. Of course if you see mold or feel strange smell do not consume it.

  1. Olive oil

Shelf life of olive oil is up to two years in order to retain its nutritional properties and is recommended to be kept in a cool, dark place where it will not spoil.

  1. Pickles

Shelf life of open jars of pickles is a year if you keep it in the refrigerator; the same rule applies for olives.

  1. Vinegar

Shelf life of vinegar is almost endless. If some changes occur in color or sediment, it is still safe to be used.

  1. Honey

Good quality honey does not lose its nutritional values with time, so it is good as long as you do not spend it.

  1. Coffee

Packing of coffee that you have opened and forgot it can be used for even three to five months after the expiration date. Coffee beans do not lose their properties even after half a year.

  1. Butter

Two weeks after the expiration date butter is safe for consumption. In the freezer it can last up to nine months.

  1. Spices

Cinnamon, pepper, red pepper, almost all spices retain the properties two years after the written expiry date, but it is very important to keep them in jars and in a dry, dark place.
