      So many people interpret “best before” as “poisonous as hell after”. Look at it, smell it, taste (a little bit of) it. If it passes all three, still perfect to eat.

        Be mindful of perishables left out of the fridge for a long time. Most of the time it is fine but in some cases it can cause illness.
