Re: Do you eat food that is past the 'use by' date?
As has been said, milk, and dairy products I always use within date, cheese gets the sniff test.
Chicken is the only other meat I am careful with, after having had a bad case of food poisioning when I was in italy, courtesy of chicken I am now super cautious of it at home.
I now only buy meats from the local butcher, it is just the same cost as the supermarket and has soooooooooo much more taste.
Saying this though, it does also depend how you store you foods, I am also very careful to store meats away from dairy and veg in my fridge. I also separate different meats in my freezer.
