Male x Female

just wondering the difference between female and male when it comes to expiration dates. And I'm talking expired, not best before.

i never throw anything out if it is still not in pieces..meds..had some penicllin from the year 2000..looked good to me..sanita tossed it...food...if it does not explode outward..good eats...

also, underwear, if there is elastic left...wear it...

sadly, sanita tossed everything out that expoires and actually reads labels for dates...i miss my scooby doo underroos

I know from working in the medical field that expired medicines will almost never do any harm.... they just might not work as good as they should.

So, I will take most meds for at least a couple of years after they expire.

Food is a bit of a different matter.... I will use it possibly a day or two after it expires.... ONLY if it smells, looks and tastes alright.

male: no, no, less-than-week-expired.

Si, man... my ex-wife, a retail pharmacist, told me that expiration dates on medications are often simply a way for the pharmaceutical manufacturer to make money, when people see "expires on" and toss the product after that date. However, there are some meds with ingredients that will decompose, so ask a pharmacist.

I've found even expired medicines I've taken have worked.

If its expired it goes in the trash

i opened a brand new tub of sour cream the other day, noticed a green spot on the top, spooned it off, and put the good stuff on my tacos. i'm still alive and well...and the sour cream is still in my refrigerator.

Expired meds should be responsibly disposed of. Trash is not a good place for them.

I use my best judgement. I don't usually pay too much attention to expiration dates when it comes to food/drinks. They are required to put a date by law, but it doesn't mean it is not good anymore!

Female USC. Months on the meds (don't take much anyway). Less than a week expired on food and beverages if they look and smell okay, except for meat. Scared of expired meat.
