Would you eat 7 year old soup?
My local Inside Out programme has the presenter eating soup from a manky, rusty old can. To be fair once heated and served in a bowl it looks fine.
He is still living just so you know

As my colleagues on forums elsewhere know, seven years is relatively young for my magic pantry.

I must say GJ I am starting to disregard the dates on some food items now and they seem to be fine. I would definitely eat pasta months out of date for example.

Tonight school kids were cooking with year old dried pasta. That's the kind of thing that would not phase me Baz. But I would always be careful certain types of food, dairy and fish, poultry.
See, I don't eat high risk stuff like poultry or sea filth.

For some reason whenever I see that phrase I laugh out loud. Must add it to my list of useful phrases.
