She had a bottle of ranch from the 90's! Unacceptable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-94221 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 17:07:42 +0000 banana 94221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate buying condiments cause I never end up using all of it before they expire. Same thing with medicine (cough syrup, tylenol, neosporin, etc). We end throwing bottles of expired medicine and have to buy everything all over again. And medicine is expensive!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-94052 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 13:45:07 +0000 Sophia 94052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also! Every summer, a group of us spend a week at a friend's parent's cabin. A year and a half ago, they completely renovated the kitchen and purchased brand new appliances. They somehow still have Pepto Bismol with an expiration date from 1992 in the fridge! What the heck! They actually emptied the old fridge out and put that in the new one without realizing how old it is?!</p> <p>They have some of the oddest things up there...including some super old bottles of Shampoo and Conditioner in one of the bathrooms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-94049 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 13:43:06 +0000 Sophia 94049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've noticed that things seem to expire super fast, too. I wonder how many expired condiments we used to eat as kids...I feel like we always had the same salad dressings and mustard bottles forever! So gross. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-94011 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 12:45:56 +0000 tequiero21 94011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>=( i know, i get so upset because it's JUST when you actually need the condiment that it's expired. very annoying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93829 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 08:11:56 +0000 winniebee 93829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did this recently! We had some mustards and steak sauce from 2010 - gross! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93823 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 07:16:15 +0000 looch 93823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So true, I think we just finished a bottle of ketchup we've had open for over a year, gross! I wish they'd sell them in smaller, more economical bottles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93822 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 07:14:52 +0000 Rubies 93822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG! I just did this last night! The oldest thing I threw out was a bottle of salad dressing that was expired March 2011. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93818 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 06:50:51 +0000 Grace 93818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bah. I don't check expiry dates on condiments. There's so many presevatives that I can't see them ever turning. I go by the smell/taste test and I'm not dead yet... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93790 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 22:32:23 +0000 lemondrop 93790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since I am home so much more now I cleaned out the kitchen- I would like to do an annual January purge again of spices and condiments in upcoming years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93760 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 21:23:54 +0000 Andrea 93760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, mustard goes bad surprisingly fast! I always like to check expiration dates on stuff, hehe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93752 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 21:14:09 +0000 Mrs. Bee 93752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: i threw out a bottle of gourmet mustard that expired last month. i swear i only bought it in january! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93751 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 21:14:07 +0000 heffalump 93751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lol, I do that every once in a while. Its tradition at my in laws that the salad dressing is expired. My mil will swear she just bought one, and we know it has to be new because hubby always throws out the expired ones when we're there, but its still expired. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93746 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 21:11:33 +0000 chopsuey 93746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seriously. DH bought some gourmet mustard last month and after we ate some I noticed it expired 3 days later! How the heck are we supposed to eat an entire bottle of mustard in 3 days?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/want-to-be-grossed-out-clean-out-your-condiments#post-93745 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 21:10:02 +0000 Mrs. Bee 93745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just cleaned out the condiments in our refrigerator and threw away an entire grocery bag full of expired condiments. The oldest one was from a year and a half ago! Why do condiments seem to expire so fast??? </p>
