Yes. Yes, I would have done.

Best-Before is a recommendation only from the manufacturer as to when the food is (obviously) going to be at it's best - it is not a requirement to cease selling or consuming it after that date - though any sensible shop will not do so, and EHO's assume individuals use good judgement at home.


Use-By is a legal requirement where shops are concerned. Consumers are advised to use their best judgement when eating or drinking items that are past the Use-By date, and show careful consideration; meat, eggs and vegetables are hardier than fish, and manufacturers often place extremely cautious Use-By dates on food as they are aware many people will consume it after that time.


The relevant legal details...

Your welcome Buddug! How did ur little drink up go?! If I didn't have kids I would have come along too, although I don't drink alcohol so mine would have been a red bull!! When I start coaching again you will have to come to my classes StraferJack, we can do a whole session sparring, and you can partner up with me, I'll even just use my jab lol
Drinks went splendidly! He's a great guy - we had a lot in common, as do most of us humans, lets face it. I'm as guilty as the next person when pontificating on the internet. I took a lot about myself away tonight and it restored my faith in human nature. It was good. And to be honest StraferJack doesn't need coaching any more than I do. Or maybe we all do?! But what kind of coaching do you do? Are you a counsellor? And what's this jab?

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
