Selling milk past its experation date?!
Is it legal to sell milk past its expiration date!? I was at the Dollar Tree yesterday and saw them selling milk 1 day past its expiration date at the "special" price of 2 for 1 dollar!. It is legal for them to sell it!? Can I report them for this poor business practice!?

That depends on the jurisdiction!. In some (most[!?]) it is very much illegal!. In some it is frowned upon!. If it were meat products, then it is very much illegal in almost every jurisdiction!
In any case, in most products, you have a window of up to 7 to 10 days after the "Best Before" date (and in some cases, this window can be MONTHS after the date passes)!. If properly refrigerated, most dairy products can still be consumed up to a week or so after the so-called expiry date passes!. However, if the date is more than a couple days passed, check it (odour/etc) before consuming it!.

My God, can there be some stupid answers out there, coming from rude and ignorant people who assume so faultily!.
For once, Aiyda, no one said anything about having PURCHASED the damn product, it was simply said that the item itself was expired whilst on sale for 2 for $1!.00!!
Selfish and money hungry, you say, to the questioner!? You've got your story twisted up, as it seems the STORE itself is money hungry!.!. where does your logic fail!?!
IT IS ILLEGAL TO SELL UNHEALTHY FOOD TO ANYONE!. As you are actually giving MONEY for what!? a sickness!?
Pshaw, you're just better off getting something to drink for free at the fountain!.
I say, report it! David, don't be discouraged by all the morons that exist on this planet!.
SPOILED Food should NEVER be sold to anyone!. As it is no longer even FOOD! but backteria!.
Sure, pay money for bacteria in your system, why, not!?! apparently, Aiyda thinks so!. XDWww@FoodAQ@Com

I would try and report it to the FDA!. I do not know if this is legal, but if you did not check the date, then I believe you are just as much to blame!. Blame yourself, honestly!.!.!.is it really worth the fight, or are you just money hungry!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
