Over date food

If it looks ok, like bread etc then I'll use it after the exp. day but generally if its like 3 days out of date I wont eat it :L

I ate a donut that was 1 day expired and it tasted perfectly fine.

I eat stuff which is a couple of days out, it really depends on what the product is and as said before it is a good way of getting you to buy more. :P

This.
Normally I don't even look at dates anywho, if it looks/tastes bad, i won't eat it normally, whether before or after the date.

I'll eat it if it looks and tastes alright, regardless of the date. (unless it's quickly perishable, like meat, milk etc.) It's not that I'm tight, I'm just not wasteful.

I eat stuff the day before it goes out of date. Gives me an excuse to be a pig even though I'd eat it if it was out of date

I throw it in the bin or I get my mum to taste it because i'm scared if i taste it i won't be able to taste the difference and i'll get food poisoning or some **** :l

The only thing which I follow the expiry date on is milk and eggs, thats it. A lot of things have so much preservatives anyway it'll last long after :L

I never eat anything that's out of date, even if it's only a day. Unless of course it's meat that has been frozen or something. Although I do eat bread that has passed its expiry date as long as there is no mold on it.

Sounds like a pretty wasteful lot, the only person I can forgive is the person who works in the kitchen as I had to do that as its regulations.

I will eat things over a week past their expiry date.

Things like bread and cheese I will just cut the mould out, eggs I keep in my fridge so I know they will last longer than on the box, milk I sniff first before I use. Canned goods don't really go off within reason.
