Best by and use by dates: toss it or use it?

How about the guy who invented hakarl? "What should I do with this shark I've caught? I know! I'll bury it in the sand for three months, then dig it up and hang it inside for a few months longer... only then will I consume it!"

I don't care what Andrew Zimmern says, I'm not touching it!

The two you will NEVER get me to try are as gross as can be. One is Korean "poo wine" made from human fecal matter!

The other is "poo tea" made using Panda poop! And get this - It costs over $33,000 (£22,000) per POUND!!

And I don't know how I end up with dented cans! I swear I check everything as I pick it up, and then mysteriously they are dented later at the house!

It's the grocery sackers, most likely. I'm stunned sometimes by the amazing disregard some of them have for your items as them slam and cram them into bags; hope you like bruised fruit and broken eggs! We take our own cloth bags to the store with us, and I am to the point now that I bag everything myself.

None of that for me, either, and I'll also never knowingly drink Kopi Luwak.

Good point. I always love when the bread ends up on the bottom of a bag...

LOL, I know, gotta love the good old civet coffee! Again, who decided, hey, lets follow this little critter around and wait for it to poop..... and then make a drink out of it! And I thought it was expensive until I saw that Panda tea!
