When we lived overseas (Asia) if I went by the expiration dates I probably would have bought very little from the stores that catered to us Westerners! Opened a can of coffee one time-the coupon had expired very early the year before! By the way, the eggs were not refrigerated. Had only a couple bad ones in the 10 years living there. Like you said, if it smells bad, the lid is convex-out it goes. Otherwise, we pretty much eat it! I also look for the meat now that is reduced because it is at the sell by date it comes home and goes in the freezer. Have bought some really good cuts like that. back to freezing pumpkin for pies. That has been my job for the afternoon. Have enough for 10 pies so far!
