Airehead Posted April 17 Share #1 Posted April 17 I found a bag of old bay cheese curls in the pantry. They expired in October. I forgot that my family brought them to me when they came to visit. You cannot buy them in Rochester. Will they kill me if I eat them? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsharr ★ Posted April 17 Share #3 Posted April 17 Probably nothing, esp. if unopened. Might be a bit stale or low in flavor, but not deadly. BTW, I am not a doctor nor have I played one on tv or stayed in a Holiday Inn Express. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Come Lately Name Posted April 17 Share #4 Posted April 17 Stale, maybe. Lethal, I doubt. Junk food has an infinite lifespan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It if was Twinkies I think they are like wine and get better with age. Better being a relative term. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former workplace, we had a sparrow get in the shop. One of my coworkers thought he could trap it in a box by luring it with a Twinkie. He set the whole works on top of a short wall. We forgot about it for a couple of years. When we finally did look at it, it looked the same as the day we put it up there - just really dirty. Fun fact: coffee with Cremora will not grow mold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoseySusan Posted April 17 Share #7 Posted April 17 I would eat them. Unless they were moldy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow old bay seems more suited to cheese curls than to chips. I love old bay but the chips die not duit for me. Just meh. No complementary flavor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably won't kill you but, if they're like the old, past-best-by-date, packaged foods I should have thrown away but ate this Spring, they might clean you out as good as a colonoscopy prep solution! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further Posted April 19 Share #25 Posted April 19 I am pretty damn sure I have never eaten just three cheese curls, chips, tortilla chips, Fritos, or any other crunchy junk food. Even if I didn't like them, I ate a dozen to be sure. I don't think I ever checked dates on junk food. Speaking of expiration dates, the mayonnaise in the fridge didn't look quite right to me this morning while making a lunch sandwich. So I checked the date 7/10/2023... Maybe why my belly hasn't felt so good lately. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
