Wow! That's old. I always buy tins as an emergency option, but every time it comes round to harvest assembly most end up in there, unless out of date and there were about three things this year. I don't know why I bother buying them. |

I saw something about a 'Reverse Advent Calendar' the other day which looked like a nice idea. Every day in December you put a tin aside until you have a box full to give to a charity, food bank or whatever on Christmas Eve. I missed Harvest so I might do that this year. |

did a clear out of all kitchen cupboards a few weeks back and found a small bottle of olive oil dated 1998!!!!
 
I do a complete clear out every few years, so not sure how that got missed!  |

We had a clear out of stuff when we did our kitchen, but I didn't have the heart to throw away the Cream of Tartar (Apr 02) or the Gravy Browning (which pre-dates BBE dates )
At the rate we use them, I'll be passing them on to the grandkids

Cleared all mine when I got my new kitchen, back in the summer.
The oldest thing would still have a year left on its sell by date. Probably my herbs and spices.
Clearing out my old cupboards I found stuff I'd left behind when I moved out, dated 2009. |

They are probably antiques now. |

I would say G's hands as she reaches in to get something to cook for my dinner
If she reads this "Please dont hurt me - its just a joke. I know you never go in the cupboard because the menus are on the fridge". |

When we go to my mum's we have a sort of competition to find what's out of date this time! She knows and we all laugh about it though. She even tries to catch us out by chucking stuff herself before we arrive but I don't think we've been beaten yet.
