From: Reitsuki Kojima Wellllllll.... As a college student on a budget who has more than once been compelled for financial or simple lazieness to eat foot that was "expired", plus some simple logic, I'll vouch that a lot of expired food is just fine. The date is as much theoretical as practical, and tends to have a *very* large margin of error. Some things, yes, you want to be picky about... canned tuna, for example. Other things, like dried mixes or pasta or something, its not nearly as critical. That said, as another child of an obessive over-stocking mother, you have my condolences.  I read somewhere that eating expired food can cause homosexua--oh, I guess you know that already. -Kiamat Dusk

Aren't You Hungry by MOD
05-11-2006 13:52
Sitting in my kitchen Stuffed from having ate What should I do now With what's left on my plate
Maybe I should save it But naw I got the cash Think I'll take the easy way And throw it in the trash
U.S.A. for Africa What a fucking scam Charity begins at home What about our land America has it's own problems That's what should come first So fuck those nigger's charity And let them die of thirst
AREN'T YOU HUNGRY AREN'T YOU HUNGRY
U.S.A. for U.S.A. That's what I'd like to see But sympathetic assholes Send it all to their own countries They want the food to grow On what they call home land But don't you know You can't grow anything in sand
AREN'T YOU HUNGRY AREN'T YOU HUNGRY AREN'T YOU HUNGRY
I think of people starving But do you think I care Let them all die hungry So I can breathe their air
Sitting in my kitchen Stuffed form having ate What should I do now With what's left on my plate

I fear the day my aunt, uncle or mother die and my sister and I are left to clean out their pantries/freezers...
My aunt and uncle live in our grandparents house... grandparents who lived through the great depression and for whom the phrases "It's STILL GOOD!" and "We can REUSE THAT!" applied to everything. -EVERYTHING-. They have two giant deep freezes... like, I could hide around 10 bodies in these things... They bought them in the 60s off of a restaurant going out of business... and I can only dream of how old the meat at the bottom must be, because in all my life none of us have ever gotten that deep.
My mother's pantry follows the same model... we have found canned goods from before our birth.
And sadly, I totally see myself following that path. My sister and I will both buy absurd quantities of something that's on sale. My poor long-suffering roommate put up with me buying 50 jars of 5$/jar pasta sauce for 1$ a piece... we made the 'Jaramid' from it.

LOL, Kiari, if you have stuff from the Great Depression, I'm sure it will be worth something to some collector

From: Eggy Lippmann My crazy mom .... It will be fun to watch Eggy turn into his parents and his kids will be saying the same thing about him. Remember Eggy, what goes around, comes around. Your kids will be just waiting their turn! "My crazy dad...."
