    Yes. Stale chips are...ugh... OTOH, last week I also finished a carton of eggs that had apparently expired in early September. Cooked them for breakfast last weekend - I couldn't tell the difference. I also have sour cream in the fridge right now with an expiration date of April 2022--I removed the seal only in September, I think, had some then, and yesterday again. Tasted perfectly fine to me.

    My favorite label was the expiration date on rock salt.

      Maybe there are two of me. There seem to be two Diana Riggs The Alfred Hitchcock Hour: "One of the Family" (1965) Lilia Skala, Kathryn Hays, Jeremy Slate - YouTube[^]

        I like my potato chips and Cheetos stale as by opening bag leaving out for a week more or less. Am I the only one with this preference. Also what does this have to do w/ a "software developer's life" other than we have to eat.

        I leave peppridge farm cookies unwrapped for a day because they're too crunchy. Other than that, no.

            With eggs put them in a cup of water, if they float, DON'T use them. If they sink, they're okay.

            I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

              I think those dates are for when the plastic starts leeching into the water.

                  I don't recall ever saying: that's nice and stale ... unless I was making bread crumbs.

                  "Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

                        The bottle is formed by the water being injected cold in the plastic mold, so I thing the leeching starts much earlier.

                          I had heard that before, but didn't try it. I just live on the edge like that... :-D

                            There are around 8 billion people on earth, and I guess you are the only one who has this specific preference.

                              Are they actually "stale"? Or perhaps just that they have absorbed a bit of moisture? Or dried out a bit more perhaps since it might depend where you live.
