I just noticed that my milk's 'sell by' date is today. How long do you guys typically drink this stuff after that date has passed?
Milk expiration date.

if it were me, id toss it, ive had bad milk before, and it was teh suck...made me pretty sick for a day
Milk tends to start getting pungent after the sell by date.
I tend to take a whiff before drinking. If it smells too strong, down the drain it goes, no matter how close to or after the day it is.
Much better than getting sick...

Spoiled milk doesn't make you sick? I didn't know that.
Anyway, milk is *usually* good for 7-10 days after the sell-by date, if your fridge is cold enough.
However, some less reputable stores have been known to re-tag their milk with a later date if it doesn't get sold by then.
Yep.
I drank a good 8oz of sour milk once, when I had a sinus infection(couldn't smell). My taste was off too, so I didn't notice anything until I stopped drinking. :disgust:
It tasted REALLY funny, so I managed to get a whiff... Ewwwww...... gross.
I didn't get sick though.
If your milk is going bad by the sell-by date, then your fridge isn't cold enough.
What he said.
Although having said that I had milk that had an expiration date of 10-14 and the stuff tasted sour on tuesday (10-7)...either they stamped it wrong or that cow was rotten to the core.
Heh, last night after my workout I went to make a shake. I was surprised to find that the milk was 8 days after its sell date. It smelled fine and was wary, but i wanted a shake and didn't feel like driving to the grocer. I expected to start feeling sick but didn't and it tasted fine.
But I have had milk only 2 days past its sell date that smelled bad. but grocery stores will re-label 'em if they don't sell.

can you explain to me why sometimes you can cut off the mold and eat the rest and it tastes fine, but sometimes a little corner of mold just takes over the whole thing?
2 weeks if maintained at a proper refrigerated manner. Can't remember the exact temp, but I did a science project in elementary school where I compared 6 samples of 3 different varieties of milk. A set of three outside, and a set of three in the fridge. The milks varied in their fat content, (whole, 2%, skim) and I tried to deecipher what effect the different fat contents made on the life of the milk's freshness. Basically I just watched milk spoil and get gross. It was fun.
