It smells OK, but is it? I found a great site (while cleaning out my fridge).

Ever wondered if that mayo was OK, despite being past the "sell by date?" I found a really neat site and I thought I would share.

Eat by date!

It has all kinds of neat links, as well.

Check it out!

Nah, I've gotten better at using leftovers and dating stuff. I'm thinking of the "Lost". pinto Oct 2013 #7

Double doored refrigerator, front and back. On a sturdy wheeled caster. Turn once a week and clean out all that stuff you've shoved to the back.

Those things that get lost, forgotten way in the back. Yeah, some weren't worth a second run anyway.

I sent the link to my daughter. She periodically goes through my refrigerator and throws out everything that's past its date. Of course, in her defense a lot of the lesser-used condiments are over five years old.

My partner was out of town and I decided to clean out the fridge. It was quite useful and my fridge is quite clear now. ha!
