Is it still safe to eat yogurt after expiration date?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Expired food product: Out of date food can still be eaten - within reason - ie several days. But no more. As food "ages" the bacterial content increases and eventually will cause spoilage or unsafe levels. In addition as food "ages" the nutrient levels decrease.
