Do you politely just turn it down as not to appear rude if it is let's say, salad dressing and they want you to put it on your salad!! We don't know what the right thing to do is.<br /><br />We once went to my Mom's house who buys at least ten of everything and while she was away, put all expired items on the kitchen counter so she could throw it away and not us. Sticky situation for sure!<br /><br />Sadie at heyMamasSadie at heyMamashttp://www.heymamas.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-69068775684289092102010-03-15T07:28:19.393-06:002010-03-15T07:28:19.393-06:00Ooh, love the CLUE reference -- Mrs Scarlett, in t...Ooh, love the CLUE reference -- Mrs Scarlett, in the kitchen, with a toothpick -- brilliant!Brahmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11883394577835241921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-34346160396396214172010-03-14T14:13:54.500-06:002010-03-14T14:13:54.500-06:00Your K needs to meet my mother-in-law.

I had to laugh because it reminded me of a time a couple of years ago that I made the most delicious, and gorgeous I might add, club sandwiches for lunch. They were 4 layers of yum with little decorative wooden picks holding them together. My husband neglected to remove his picks as he ate and ended up biting into one, then accused me of trying to 'kill him'. <br /><br />Yeah, that was me...Mrs. Scarlett, in the kitchen, with a toothpick.Christinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06612081932204163222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-87164469811291712672010-03-06T02:24:03.988-07:002010-03-06T02:24:03.988-07:00Brahm!

Go to WWW.STILLTASTY.COM and there is a good bit of info on how long you should keep foods around. <br />I like to be careful of dates of expiry as most goods in "PLASTIC" containers usually expire (whether opened or not) 16 months from the date they are packed as the chemicals in plastic will leach into the products. Heat near products in plastic hasten the leaching process.<br />I hope I'm not scaring you and others but as it has been said many times before that glass is the BEST container to can and hold your foods.<br />With dairy and other items that are more perishable, the old phrase always hold true, " WHEN IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT ".<br />Take care and I'll be back to read more.<br /><br />Denis.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-13248977916571844522010-03-03T19:08:39.055-07:002010-03-03T19:08:39.055-07:00When I was growing up, we knew a food item was bad...When I was growing up, we knew a food item was bad when it was growing green and black moldy stuff along the top and sides of the container.
