My advice for eating canned food after its expires is a bad thing because once it expired its not good googd for you to eat so dont eat expired food
If its the day of the expiration date yes but not after.
It should have an expiration date stamped on the can somewhere. If today is before that date, then it is ok to eat.
An unopened can of canned crab has a pantry shelf life of 3 to 5 years. An opened can be refrigerated for 2 to 3 days.
There is no magic date. It will depend on the quality of the food to begin with, the quality and type of container and the subsequent handling and storage thereof. Even canned, food will degrade and change color, texture and flavor. I have used some items that were a year past the coded date. They were edible, but I could tell the difference when compared to newer product. Many canned foods are coded with 2 and even 3 year shelf lives. But for best quality and nutrition, plan to use canned goods within a year. If you are trying to maintain a cache of canned foods, use product throughout the year and replace it with fresh stock. Use the FIFO method - First In First Out. Always use the oldest items first.
If they were frozen before the expiration date, there shouldn't be a problem. If they have been in the refrigerator, toss them.
Absolutely! Unopened, it can be kept up to the expiration date marked on the can.
If you are talking about shelf stable canned crab meat, the date on the can is likely the 'best by' date and not an expiration. If the can is unopened, has been stored properly and is not swollen or damaged, it is likely safe to eat, but the palatability of the crab meat will deteriorate over time. The processor will not guarantee the product beyond the recommended 'use by' date.
After something passes the expiration date, or expires, it's no longer considered good, or up to standard. You shouldn't eat any food or take any medicine that has passed the expiration date.
That depends how long after the expiration, how it has been stored and the condition of the can. Usually, canned food has a "best by", not an "expiration". If the "expiration" is recent and the can has been stored properly and is in good condition, the contents could be safe. Whether or not to use it would be your decision.
The expiration date on any food item is the date after which you are supposed to throw away the product because it is no longer considered safe to eat. If it is unopened and canned and only a few days past that date, it may still be okay. Otherwise, throw it away. The expiration date will vary dependent upon when the product was made, so you should check the lid of the bottle or the bottom of the can. May also be listed as a "Best By" date.
It is never advised to eat anything pass it's expiration date. The broth could make someone very sick if consumed.
By use I believe you mean eat. Canned food may still be safe to eat after the expiration date IF the can has no damage to it and has no signs of bloating. Any dents deformities or damage to a can may allow it to grow botulism. This a deadly food born pathogen THAT CAN KILL YOU!Most expiration dates on unrefrigerated, non temperature sensitive items like dried pasta are there because it loses flavor or the preservatives lose effectiveness and they clump or lose color.
