I just found a couple of tubs of stuff at the back of my food cupboard.
1 tub of bisto white sauce granules,1 tup of cheese ones. They went past their use by date a year ago though
Should i still use them?

ETA Why are you buying white sauce and cheese sauce granuals ? Making sauces is easy and quite quick
But if its been expired a year then id say bin them like rubberskin said
i bought them years ago hence their dates
I try to make all my own stuff nowdays
same i tend to smell things and if they smell fusty i wont eat em. if not theyre grand
Bleurgh ! Once poured milk on my cereal to discover it had formed large white lumps *shudders* absolutely mingin so now I check each time
a year later tho' i'd bin them. :yes:
Well, obviously with stuff like that i wouldn't use it! But i keep open stuff in the cupboard for ages, they're fine as long as they don't get mites or damp.
My M-I-L was making said custard from the Birdseye powder... she couldn't work out why although tasting fine, it was white custard rather than yellow...
We soon found out - 'Best Before February 1993' - AAARRRGHHHHH :eek:
I have also been lucky enough to be given 'fish ball soup' at a friends when I was younger... definately the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted, compounded by the fact the fishballs were well out of date... :yuck:
