I wanted to make myself an egg salad sandwich for breakfast (I know, weird breakfast choice) so I pulled out 2 hard boiled eggs, mayo, relish and onions!
And was SO annoyed when I saw that my mayo expired in December 2011!
I decided not to use the expired mayo. :T
Would you have used it?

Nope. I would have used it if i didn't know it was expired, but once I know, its too late.

No just because it has high egg content and I'm nervous about egg products once they pass their date. If it was ketchup I would have used it

yeah, I am pretty lax about expirations dates but for me, mayo is a no-no.

Hell to the no. I don't eat Mayo anyway but if I did I think that would be on of the foods where I always always always follow the expiration date.

@chopsuey119: Not while pregnant. While not pregnant? Yes.Sorry dude, and you can't even go out and get some!!! Me thinks Mr. Chopsuey needs to bring you some mayo at his lunch hour...

I'm the queen of leftovers/expired stuff, but even I say no because it expired so long ago.

The sucky thing is.. I think I bought it expired! I don't think it's been more than 4 months since I purchased it. WTF WHOLEFOODS!!!!

I wouldn't use it. Bad mayo is no joke. I bought yogurt once & discovered that it was expired when I went to eat it a few days later. So annoying!!

no, as soon as I see an expiration date that is overdue it goes in the trash and I run to the store.

No! If it were mustard, or maybe even ketchup I might chance it....but definitely not mayo! Also, in pregnancy I probably wouldn't chance anything at all!

hmm. with the date if i'd known it hadn't been open that long I might smell/taste test it and then cautiously take my chances if it seemed ok. if i knew it was open for a long time and then expired dec 2011, i'd prob ditch it a few weeks after.

I'm not a mayo fan anyways, so nope. And I'd bug Hubs so that he wouldn't either (otherwise, he'd eat anything).

If I was pregnant, probably not. Since I'm not pregnant, I would smell it and see it smelled ok then decide. I don't check the date on things so I wouldn't know if I was eating expired food.
My roommate in college was hungry one day and grabbed a bag of cookies of mine. She turned on the light and noticed they were green! Eww!
