    the other day, a certain someone that shall remain nameless, ate a strawberry with a little mold on it.

    for the next 8 hours, all i heard was, i ate mold....i ate mold.

    I hope the nameless person doesn't eat blue cheese, or mushrooms...

    It depends on what it is, and how long past.

    like? Like I have a canister of Lipton tea that expired 2 years ago...there is no mold since it's dried leaves...would you use it or toss it?

    Tea should be fine. neverheard of a canister of lipton tho i'm assuming loose tea? i'd say make a cup to test it. two years seems like a stretch but i KNOW i've got teabags that are over 3 years old in the kitchen... there's no expiration date on the box, i still use them and they're fine.

    I keep expiry dates in mind when it comes to eggs and especially dairy. Everything else I get is fresh.
    But yeah, expired dairy is dumped a few days after I buy it...except for quality cheese!

    I watched my brother one time pour a bunch of expired milk onto his cereal and get the spoon to his mouth before he smelled it. Looked like cottage cheese. I laughed so hard I cried.
    (We were teenagers, I would tell him not to eat it now. :lol: )

    i'd still let him eat it.
    :lol:
    Well, maybe!
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
