I'm pretty sure plastic doesn't rot.

That's how chocolate milk is made.......Milk that has passed it's expiration date before being sold is returned back to the processing plant and from there turned into chocolate milk and couple other products.

Are you serious about the chocolate milk?

A roughneck that I used to work with worked at Manco before coming to the rigs. He didn't go into grave details but mentioned some of the expired milk will get re-processed. MMMM ice cream, cottage cheese, sour cream, butter. Did a google search but couldn't come up with much for answers

That's really gross. My husband came home one day with cheese slices. I completely blew a gasket. He wanted to put them on Hamburgers. The kids were grossed out and wouldn't eat them. He also introduced the kids to white bread which they never new existed untill he brought good old wonder bread home. I try to cook everything from scratch or buy real foods not edible food like substances (cheeze wiz)

Haha sour cream does go bad believe it or not, it goes throught homogenization and when it goes old that starts to seperate, first gets a liquidy layer and it starts to break up.

Hmmmmmm!!!! Chez Whiz. I love Chez Whiz with raspberry jam on toast, but sadly I have not been able to enjoy this delicacy since I have been married (long time) since my wife will not allow Chez Whiz within 10 blocks of our house:(. Nothing but good wholesome food and lots of red wine in our house LOL

One day past the expiration date is essentially still a good product. It's more of a liability thing, so stores have to take the product off the shelf.

Also, if you see some milk on a store shelf that is past the expiration day, it goes straight to the garbage behind the store.
It is only (one day expired) milk that was not shipped out of the dairy facilty that is used in the making of other dairy products.

It seems gross, but the milk, even one day past expiration is still a good product. :d

When grocery stores get cheese slices, they don't come cold! It's so heavily preserved that they don't even need to be placed in the fridge... although most grocery stores do place them in the fridge section to provide the illusion that they are "real" dairy. LOL
The things you learn working in the grocery sector.;) :confused:
