My feeling about expired food is.......  There is a date on there for a reason. 

It is always better to be safe.  Any type of food poisioning is serious.  If

it's expired for a couple of days I'm sure it's OK but again I toss everything

expired.

Now if you're sad and you're feeling blue

Go out and buy a brand new pair of shoes

And you go down, down to Tangie Town

'Cause people down there really like to get it on

this is probably a dumb question, but I have some expired tempeh, and

wondered how long it might be safe to eat? I bought too much on sale!

It looks OK and is sealed in that plastic so maybe it is OK for a

while? just was wondering if any one has used expired tempeh?

Thanks!~Danielle

I eat expired vegetarian food all the time. As long as there is no meat or

dairy products in it, the danger is very small. The dates are only there

for optimal taste and freshness. Past a date does not mean it is a problem.

If you don't see mold or it does not have a different smell, it is just

fine.

Everything is so different, the only way to be sure is to call the

company and ask them.

I was so angry with myself recently. I had bought my acidophilis yogurt

to make a big batch of home made yogurt, and I procrastinated, and

ughhh, the date had passed. Not only did I not get to use it as a

starter, I didn't even eat it! but since it was yogurt, ehhhhh, not

worth it. When in doubt, I would call the company, and if you don't have

time for that, then throw it out.

hugs,

Chanda

This is all the more reason not to used expired vegetarian foods. Very few of

our products contain preservatives, maybe you have been lucky.

According to the FDA = expiration dates are not required they are therefore not

regulated. This means that each packaging service it responsible for setting

it's own guidelines for expiration. Unlike medicines food expiration's are based

on nutrition degradation, flavor and rate of bacterial growth. For most shelf

stable foods 30 days past the expiration date is still in the safety zone, for

refrigerated items 7-10, for frozen items 60 days. It is important to know the

food well enough that you can recognize spoilage as even a " fresh " item (one

well before the expiration) can be spoiled due to improper storage, rapid

temperature change or other transport concerns. Always use your best judgment if

the package is well sealed and you open it and it all seems fine then use as

normal - when in doubt through it out.

 

BTW since Tempeh is a fermented food according to Japanese cooking tradition it

is even more desirable slightly more pungent. It is a matter of personal

preference (like natto) but if you are used to fermented beans it can be quite a

treat.
