  1. Once I found it in the hood. I have this idea in the literature: products do not spoil on the day of expiration of the specified period, the deadline is the manufacturer's recommendation. Thus, it is shown that the company is ready to be responsible for the quality of products up to a certain time. It's up to you when and what to use.�

    I understand that this is not an answer to the question, but I decided to share it!)

  2. Everything is dry (cookies, cereals, etc.), as well as pickled and pickled. Brine is a good preservative, and food can be stored in it for months. I've got an open can of capers in the fridge – it's probably six months old. Similarly, sauerkraut – can stand as long as you like – in an acidic environment, putrefactive microorganisms practically do not develop.

    And fermented milk products can be consumed for quite a long time (within reason, of course). Kefir, fermented baked milk, and matzoni do not rot over time, but turn sour more strongly. So “expired” kefir will be more acidic than fresh, but quite edible.

  3. Storage conditions play a role-no less than terms.

    Macaroni, chips, breadcrumbs, crackers, cereals-suitable for food, if there are no signs of rotting or eating worms/ insects.

    If something was stored in the cold all the time without changing the temperature – condensed milk, stewed meat, pickles, jam-the chances of being suitable for food after the expiration date increase dramatically.

    If the jam contains fruit seeds, you should be careful to eat something that has been left standing for a long time. �

    Sugar and salt are preservatives in their own right, and they don't need any comments.

    Look at the product, smell it, taste it. The rest is at your own risk.

  4. If the jam turns into a braga, I would use it.but meat and fish products seem dangerous.milk if it turns into curdled milk, I feel it's normal.I kept the milk on purpose.

  5. However, it may not spoil for centuries, or even after several thousand years. This is proved by archaeologists who found barrels of honey in one of the tombs and it was edible even after such a long time.
