Would you eat food past it's use by/best before date?
Now, there is a difference. Use by obviously means you should (in theory) use the product by that date. Best before is it's not at it's best after that date and therefore just a guide. So the bread may be a bit harder or your grapes a bit riper after that date. Do you stick rigidly by those dates?
Personally I don't. I used to. Convinced I'd be poisoned and obviously common sense comes into play but would you waste food due to a grape not looking pretty?
