SJ. Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I cleaned out my refrigerator today and found a sealed container of plain yogurt dated Dec 20th. Since it is sealed is it ok to eat? Would you eat it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athomemom Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 No, I would not eat it. Toss it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol in Cal. Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I would inspect carefully for mold, but as it is sealed it is probably alright. Once you unseal it, though, it will spoil faster than usual, so eat it up in a day or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiana Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yes, if it didn't look or smell bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairfarmhand Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I'd eat it. Yogurt is just soured milk. It's not been that long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regentrude Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 yes, if there is no mold and if it does not taste funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbkaren Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 The eyeball test, the sniff test, and a little taste. If all is well, dig in! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyLittleBears Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 You won't regret throwing it out, but you might regret getting sick! :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2denj Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 No, I wouldn't eat it, but I am weird about expiration dates. I always toss if it is expired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ. Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 I opened it and it seemed fine. The boys ate it and declared it "delicious." Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonshineLearner Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yes, although if eating it is a problem, just cook with it. Yogurt being bad is a "guess"... less beneficial as the time goes on.. perhaps... but fine to eat. I love making crepes out of yogurt..... Yummy Crepes 14 eggs, 3 cups kefir or runny yogurt... (or, as we do... yogurt with a little added milk, very good with vanilla yogurt, too!) 1 tsp sea salt 1 TBS molasses Process Above ingredients in blender till smooth.... Then stir in... 1.5 cups arrowroot powder 1.5 cups oat flour. (Get Oat groats from coop, healthfood stores, or some places where they have bulk. Looks like wheat berry.... and you need to "grind" like wheat. Perhaps you know a spot to do this? I hear that you can use a coffee grinder, but I've never tried this.) Stir until lumps are dissolved. If the batter is too runny, add arrowroot pwd in .5 cup increments until the batter is about the texture of heavy cream. Spoon by .25 cupfulls into a well-buttered crepe pan. Cook around 30 secs per side. You can half the recipe... or freeze left overs. I like to fold in quarters... and put a few in each ziplock.. (after cooled) I take them out... thaw a bit... and put in my iron skillet with a bit of butter... and when warmed... spoon in apricot fruit spread... Yum!

georgialee Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yep, I'd eat it. Just check for mold, but as long as it is still factory sealed it should be fine. Obviously if it smells 'off' throw it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justasque Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I cleaned out my refrigerator today and found a sealed container of plain yogurt dated Dec 20th. Since it is sealed is it ok to eat? Would you eat it? So, three weeks? It's probably fine if it's not moldy, but for a buck or three, I'm not sure it's worth the risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
