Oops - the milk has expired! What can I do with it?

It expired a couple of days before I noticed.

@porwest Usually I will look at the color and consistency apart from the expiration date.

The expiration date has NOTHING to do with freshness. It's the last date a store can sell it by. If the milk smells fine and is not curdling, it's good.

I'm tempted to do that too.

@pitstop I always do that. I place a drop on my index, lick it. If it tastes like milk, I drink it all. If it is curled, Luna gets it. And she does not get ill. My grandma used to make cheese with curled milk but I´d rather buy cottage cheese or the like.

@marguicha cheese sounds interesting

What can I do with it.

@pitstop Drink it, cook something that uses milk.

Tempted to, but can't afford to get sick.

@pitstop then throw it.

@pitstop You will not get sick because it's not bad. The expiration date has nothing at all to do with the freshness. I know I am repeating myself. But for good reason.

So tempted, but don't want to risk it.

@pitstop I'm sure there is no risk as long as it smells and tastes okay.

So many of you have said that but I don't feel like taking that rest.

@pitstop Whatever you feel comfortable with.

Bathing in it looks very luxurious!!

That seems like the safest option.

@porwest I still will not take the chance.

Just for future reference, the expiration date has absolutely nothing to do with the freshness. It's a "sell by" date. I have used eggs several weeks past expiration and there is nothing wrong with them. I also worked in the food industry, having worked for Coca-Cola, Kraft Foods, and Nestle—so I know a bit about what expiration dates actually mean and who they are for. Hint: They are not for you. lol

I didn't risk it.

I chickened out and chucked it the next day.

@pitstop

I playing it safe too
