It'll be ok (probably)-sell by/use by dates aload of Peesh-a few of us at work got held on and one of the guys was hungry, i had a tin of soup in my locker and gave it to him, he heated it up and scoffed the lot,i walked by the bin in the canteen and saw that it was out of date two years ago!!-didn't say anything cause he's 6'4 19 stone-but he was ok.

Depends if it's a use by, sell by or best before date. Sell by and best before: ignore. Use by: might be dodgy to eat something this far out of date.

Personally, douse it in Brandy and put a match to it, that should kill any germs, then bring some round to me. I friggin love xmas pud!

No idea.

I do not like christmas pudding. I do however bloody well love christmas cake. Especially if it has a thick layer of marzipan on it.

Already have. Just wanted to make sure I shouldn't be on my way to casualty. Ate 3/4 of one of decent size. The date was a best before so I guess I'm safe! Yummy. Tasted just as good as on Christmas day. Think I'll buy a load more in the sale next year!

It's still quite experimental. I'm feeling some feelings but it might be cos I ate a lot.
