I thought i couldnt eat all that, truth was i couldn't leave any. Replace the gouda with gruyere or emmental, and it will be perfect ! But nice idea, I'll keep it in mind for one of those days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look for meat that is on clearance (often good stuff around $3/lb.). Cook it or freeze it that day. Most of the sides I buy are date over due and cheap, but good quality. Save a ton on that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a documentary from French TV on Youtube concerning the expiry date thing. They had stuff over expiry 2 day, 1 week, 1 month and had it tested in labs for bacteria and presence of any harmful stuff. Everything passed. Now note I am not speaking about packed meat or fish ! Dates are mainly set on "taste" reason, i.e. the manufacturer thinks that after a certain date the product will loose a bit of its perfect taste, and hence will give it a bad reputation. Then there is the excessive safety thing. Then the commercial thing, when a product in your fridge arrives at expiry date you tend to rush to consume it....and then buy another one. Personally except for.very sensitive stuff, I often consume past date stuff. Note that the way you keep it (refrigerated) plays a very important role. But, look at eggs in the west. Packed, kept cool, with an expiry date. Look how eggs are kept and sold in developing countries. Here, bought by the kilo, kept in open air, no expiry date. I still keep them in the fridge but don't worry about dates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
