I drink milk all the time past the date. You would KNOW bad milk.

Re: Milk past date but smells good...use or chuck? POLL

If I were sure it smelled good, I guess I would use it. That being said, I always think milk smells rotten, so I can only really go by the date.

It's just a SELL by date.
Not a USE BY date.

Smell it- don't waste good milk over an arbitrary date.

Re: Milk past date but smells good...use or chuck? POLL

Depends on how many days past the date. I wont go past 3 days or so even if it smells ok.

Re: Milk past date but smells good...use or chuck? POLL

i guess depending on how far past the date.
i can never tell if its good or bad
unless its chunky...haha

Re: Milk past date but smells good...use or chuck? POLL

Unless it smells sour, I always use it past the date. As a PP said, the date on the milk is a sell by date, not a use by date.

Re: Milk past date but smells good...use or chuck? POLL

if it is not sour or lumpy, it is okay. If it is a sell by date, it should still be fine a few days after that date.
