Answers: I had a sandwhich from work tonight when i got home but 10 mins ago i looked at the packet and it was over four weeks past its use by date.It was egg mayo & ham.will i be very ill? I am getting a bit of pain in my belly now.
Could be. I don't think you'll die, though. At the very most, you might vomit for a couple of days. Young children and elderly people are more at risk for food bourne illnesses.
Usually you get pains in your stomach. But you'll be ok. If it hurts, you should take some Ibuprofen. It might be ok because its 4 weeks. If there was mold or fungus, you would be sick. So just take a some ibuprofens.
ull prolly be fine. the worst outcome would be a belly ache
Well you could probably get sick but it will probably only last for maybe a day,cause all you could probably get is food poisoning.
yucky..of course u going to have a lot belly pain drink Pep to besom
you are full of it. there would not be a sandwhich a month past due out for sale. unless it was a typo error.
Even though the package was air sealed, when you are dealing with egg and mayo, you are looking for trouble when that stuff gets old....probably in the form of diahrrea ......
where exactly do you work that has 4 week old sandwiches because I don't want to eat there!!! And if you got it from an employee vending machine, you need to complain to someone. ewwwww!
You might get sick, locate a toilet! =P
You'll be fine! I'm sure the next time...you'll be more aware of checking the "expiry date" not just on sandwiches but on everything (canned goods, milk, meats etc.). "Expired on" or "Good till" dates lets the consumer know when the product is at their freshest. It's your job now to complain to whomever is providing the food at your workplace to take it out of the shelf or vending machine. Four weeks expired is waaaay to long for them to keep it on the shelf. Let your co workers be aware too of your experience. Hope you're feeling much better!
