Use or Toss?

[alien_host]

Here's another one. I was cleaning out my fridge and found a sealed vanilla yogurt with a July 15, 2011 date on the bottom shelf....use or toss?

Any good baking recipes with yogurt, that might be an alternative.

[sunshine873]

July? Oh no, that's just too long for me, I'd have to toss it.

[lil_acorn]

TOSS! and don't even open it to sniff it!

[FTMLuc]

I am one for keeping stuff, but in this case TOSS!!!

[infomama]

blech..toss that.

[alien_host]

Well if the keepers are saying toss....in the bin it goes....although I'll wait til garbage day.

How far past the date is OK for yogurt? I have a horrible time with them getting shoved to the back of the fridge and "lost"....I need a better system!

As a person who is generally a "keeper", the only thing I would consider doing with that yogurt that old is flushing it into my septic system. :ROTFLMAO:

Ok, again, I'll be gross. It's yogurt. If it looks and smells ok that wouldn't bug me too much. Would I toss it? I probably would just b/c I have enough stuff in my fridge that if I am cleaning it out I go for a fresh start. But, dh would eat that if it were in there.

Oh we have septic, is it really good for septic?

[babyonway]

Toss for sure!!!

[karstmama]

i'll just say i've eaten yogurt older than that with no ill effects at all!

[momof2girls]

toss toss toss...way too old for dairy IMO

[Cuckoomamma]

Please toss!

[brgnmom]

Yes, please toss the yogurt. I tend to be risk averse about these types of things and, in particular, for dairy products.

What don't I know about yogurt? Why sit in your drain?

Will it do something magical? I, too, have old yogurt in my fridge :)

[boilermakermom]

Toss!!!!!!!

[EllasMum]

I would totally eat that, almost without hesitation. Provided it smelled ok and had nothing growing on it. :p

[lowrioh]

toss. I wouldn't even open it.

:yeahthat: I had some Fage that was too far past it's date. BLECH!

[mum-to-be]

Please toss it! And do tell, does it have mold growing in it?

[mariza]

I read an article about yogurts "good bacteria" being good for the septic. Not sure how accurate it is, but since I hate to just throw stuff away, I do this whenever we have old yogurt, or if the kids don't finish theirs. It hasn't hurt it to my knowledge. We've been here 4 years without a problem.

:yeahthat::yeahthat:

But if I were going to toss it, I think I would flush it rather than try to get it down the drain. Gets to the septic system either way...

I don't know about the mold since it is sealed and I haven't opened it. I sort of doubt it though. Before I toss it I'll check it for you though. I might put it down the drain as people have mentioned. I'm afraid to put it in the toilet as I am worried it will "plop" out and splash toilet water on me. :hysterical:

[alien_host]

that I actually found an older greek style yogurt in my second fridge with a May 15, 2011 date....I opened it to put it down the drain and it actually smelled perfectly fine....go figure....no mold, looked ok, smelled "normal"....but I DID NOT taste it ;)
