    Call the store manager and complain, They will probably give you a free carton of milk, but since you are not sick from it theres not much else that can be sdone.

    The Expiration Date on food products is actually the date that prohibits its sale. It is NOT the date that it cannot be safely consumed. However, eight months is ridiculously long for a store to leave any product on the shelves. Call that store, speak to the manager and tell him that he could kill someone with this neglectful behavior.

    If nothing else, he may have his staff update the merchandise. He should return your purchase price and give you a case of Ensure, as well.

    If you get sick from this, see a lawyer....although I am not sure how much responsibility a customer has for reading the information on a product.

    Go talk to the store manager. Don't worry about your health, you'll be fine.
