Approved Food

I believe is was GB Mark who sent me a link from the Consumerist about Approved Food. The British site sells expired, yet edible, food for up to half off.

Apparently it's gotten quite a bump in traffic these last few months. I'm always using things a little past the date, ever since I learned in food science that those dates don't mean much as far as safety goes, it's just pointless to be throwing away food (i.e. money) right now. And I guess a lot of other people feel the same way.

Check out the article over on barfblog for more musings and information.

Enjoy!

You have a wonderful blog..so diverse and interesting. I do pay attention to dates on the dairy products.

I am watching the crappy weather too. Just hoping we don't get an ice storm.
