Expired Milk

[WOTR]

Right... other foods.  Canned goods for at least 2 or 3 years past the "best before."  Frozen anything for a year or more after (when does it get freezer burn?).  Cheese when there is mold (unless you can cut it off).

I figure if you can eat something packaged with the technology available in 1845 and eat in safely in 1939 that I can eat something packaged with modern methods and quality control for at least a decade after it was produced.  I had to go to wiki as I could only remember the story and not the dates. The fact that we do not use lead solder anymore means I should get a century of storage out of my cans (I really do consider a decade to be long enough... and I doubt I usually go more than a couple of years past the "best before" date...)

In 1829, Admiral Sir James Ross also took canned food to the Arctic, as did Sir John Franklin in 1845.[7] Some of his stores were found by the search expedition led by Captain (later Admiral Sir) Leopold McLintock in 1857. One of these cans was opened in 1939, and was edible and nutritious, though it was not analysed for contamination by the lead solder used in its manufacture.

The '8 months past expiration date' chops I had were great.

Stuck them in the slow cooker with some white wine, teriyaki, onions, salt and pepper, cooked them for six hours, came out great.

I do sometimes find a pack of frozen meat at the back of the freezer in the garage, one that has been purchased and forgotten about.

My rule of thumb when it comes to expiration date is, "This means NOTHING to me!"

I like to flex like a Guido looking at a mirror in a gym before I eat expired food... just to show my manliness and to dominate the meat in an Alpha Male fashion.

Tried to find a video of Joseph Benavidez's last fight to respond to that... Joe-aconstrictor.  Guy had to tap out with his feet...

BPA exhibits hormone-like properties that raise concern about its suitability in some consumer products and food containers. Since 2008, several governments have investigated its safety, which prompted some retailers to withdraw polycarbonate products. The FDA has ended its authorization of the use of BPA in baby bottles, sippy cups and infant formula packaging, based on market abandonment, not safety. The European Union and Canada have banned BPA use in baby bottles.

A 2010 report from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) identified possible hazards to fetuses, infants, and young children. However, an FDA assessment released in March 2013 said that BPA is safe at the very low levels that occur in some foods. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) reviewed new scientific information on BPA in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011: EFSA’s experts concluded on each occasion that they could not identify any new evidence which would lead them to revise their opinion that the presently known levels of exposure to BPA is safe; however, EFSA does recognize some uncertainties, and will continue to investigate them.

Eat hearty, technovictims!

The bigger issue for myself is that the milk begins to taste less than fresh a few days before the expiry date.

Wait, we've been sending non-expired milk to Australia?

Well, we tell them it's "milk," haha.

It tastes salty. Is that normal?

Get some, Kelty!  Get some!

Those are just the extra vitamins.  It's fortified milk. With vitamin D.   Teehee. Hehee.

Well then give me a double shot.

Double down on the money shot for Jazzy.   MMMMMM, yummy!

Salty with notes of pizza rolls.

Salty with notes of pizza rolls.

Ah yes. That would explain the branding being George Noory's Full Cream Money Shot.

They make containers that small?
