Title: Will I die? Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, May 3, 2012, 15:47:17 I don't really like milk but love a bowl of cereal of an evening.
Problem is that I can't be bothered going to the shops and I have a bottle of long-life skimmed milk which is dated 27/04/2012. Will it be safe to use, bearing in mind its about a week out of date and I assume skimmed milk has almost no dairy in it? Title: Re: Will I die?

If its open it'll probably still be fine, if in doubt smell it. If its lumpy you'll probably want to give it a miss! I personally often have semi skimmed fresh milk in my fridge that's a week out of date and is still fine! Title: Re: Will I die? Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, May 3, 2012, 15:53:13 You mean UHT milk? Kind of. Its the foreign version 'ecreme' which basically translates as skimmed. Its sealed and in a white non seethrough plastic bottle. In the supermarket its never chilled but I have it in the Fridgidaire. Title: Re: Will I die?

Title: Re: Will I die? Post by: Barry Scott on Thursday, May 3, 2012, 16:13:05 I occasionally buy skimmed milk for coffee and, just for the sake of experimentation, I had a bottle of Cravendale that was 6 months past it's end date when I threw it. It still smelt fine, but I wasn't about to start using it for my breakfast White Russian sessions.

Title: Re: Will I die? Post by: fuzzy on Thursday, May 3, 2012, 16:49:11 In answer to the original question- Yes you will die.
As a result of using the milk? Probably not. Hope this helps. Title: Re: Will I die? Post by: kerry red on Thursday, May 3, 2012, 16:53:15 For Christ's sake - use vodka instead
