I just ate Healthy Living cottage cheese today and the use by date said the 12th August and I ate it on the 15th. Will anything bad happen, I am really worried, I checked the use by date after I ate it.
If someone could please answer I would be grateful
Thank You
OMG! Now you can't go to heaven!
In the USA, federal law requires a date on the package, but it doesn't mean anything. It certainly is not the date when the food magically goes bad. as long as the food is not gray and fuzzy and doesn't smell bad, it's still good. Canned food stays good until the can swells. Bread products such as pancake mix or crackers stay good until the package is opened. They stink when they go bad. More info: stilltasty.com
