I just had cereal with milk, but the expiration date is in 4 days. Will I die?

The expiration date is in 4 days, but it didn't taste bad. Will I die? It wasn't even old. No expiration date was passed.

    By the time you reach the expiration date anything you have consumed will have passed through your system. Think about it.

    No, food and drinks usually stay good for at least a week or so after their expiration date, so you won't die or get sick just relax.

    Strange that.. the expiration date for both your milk and our ability to answer this, coincide ! but if you extend your question you'll be able to update your comments after the expiry date for the milk and then we'll know you haven't expired as well...!! .. [ Alternatively Please get your nearest relative to notify us of your 'passing' .....it isn't necessary for you to visit and tell each one of your fans after the big day !!!!!!!!!!..] Ha Ha !

    ps if the milk's off it just becomes croudy cheese....Smells like sweaty feet ! Yuck !!

    Yes, they cemeteries are filled with people who have perished from drinking or eating expired milk.

    Even if it was expired, you probably woud not die, just become very sick ( throwing up, nausea, etc). Don't stress.

    no milk is supposed too be good a week after the date

    a sell by date is just an estimate.

    If it didn't taste bad, it's fine.

    Very doubtful.
