tmtech:Heed to his advise he is Food Scientist/ Nutritionist. Best before simply means the quality of that food product is guaranteed up to that date provided you play your part of quality assurance eg proper storage. However, manufactured foods sometimes have chemical preservatives which can become less potent after BB. I doubt that the preservatives can become toxic because they are food grade chemicals. When the preservatives expire, microorganisms can easily grow in the food if it remains on the shelf, this type of foods may contain microbial toxins and bacteria cells as a whole which can cause food poisoning. In addition, some preservatives are used to inhibit the procession of certain chemical reactions that can hasten deterioration of the food through the formation of undesirable toxic or non-toxic components in the food. After BB this type of foods can be harmful, so it is hypothesised that the preservatives are not actually the villain. All foods have best before dates including raw foods like grains. In the case of raw foods you will loose the nutritional and the eating quality of such foods after best before date. Hence, you are not getting value for your money. 1 Like |

Dat2jo:I doubt if anyone will be able to give you a good answer other than what the product itself says. I think I can help. Take a pen and paper. Write down your nairaland password. Eat the damn noodles. Tell those around you to tell the world what happened to you, if it hurts. This is an opportunity to be credited with this experiment. Take it; opportunity comes but once. |

Dat2jo: A junk food is already dangerous not to talk of an expired one. If you are rich or middle class person, it will be poison to you but if you are very poor, e no go do you anything. When disposing it, check if you have wretched people around you, tell them its expired and you want to throw it away. |

Na English fresher course you need…..it reads ‘Best before….’ And note ‘Worse after….’ In English, before Best, there is Better and before better, there is Good, which means, though it is not best to eat it after that date, but it is still better and obviously still good. |

I have read the paper, it never pegged drug usage beyond its exipry date at 2yrs. It still recommendations that have not been implemented in any reasonable way. The legal implications of just arbitrarily pegging drug safety beyond its expiration date is dangerous and the cost to confirm any of these would be astronomical. Another issue is regarding what amounts to storage under the right conditions, in a Fridge? Cool dark place? On you Counter top in the heat and humidity of Nigeria? Certainly the side effects of a drugs increase if there is any change in the composition even if the drug doesn’t become totally unsafe. I would not recommend taking any antibiotic In liquid or dry form beyond its expiration date. So yes that info is Dangerous. phemmyfour: |

Don't spread half truths. When you are ill try to avoid expired drugs for your own safety. Take that as professional medical advice. phemmyfour: |
