What happens if you eat spoiled yellow cheese?

I was making spaghetti and decided to put yellow shredded cheese in my plate. The bag says its good until Oct of 2014. I put a rather small amount and mixed it up. Well, the cheese had a spoiled smell and it had white specks on it but I had already placed it in my food. I've been taking out the melted yellow cheese and have been eating the noodles but should I just throw everything away? I'm drinking 7up thinking it will help it kill whatever is in my stomach but am I just being paranoid? Can I continue eating my noodles and meat knowing I put that nasty cheese mixed in there?

It's not spoiled it's just dried out a little bit. That tends to happen with pre-shredded cheese which is why I only buy block cheese and grate it myself. Hard cheese like cheddar don't actually spoil. They can grow mold but even if they are moldy you can scrape the mold off and eat the rest of it. Cheese was originally invented as a way to preserve milk, and it's aged for months or even years before it even gets to the grocery store.

Experiation dates are never dead on so if it smells worse than cheese usually smells I would not eat it
