We cooked with garlic earlier (from a bulb + unopened clove.) Discovered after we ate it went out of date early July but no signs by look or smell to day it was off. What do you reckon?
It is a ‘best before’ not ‘use by’ date big difference. You will be fine.
I feel stupid I've never questioned they would mean different things. D'oh! Thanks though!

Haha one will kill you the other is a matter of taste 😉
Garlic is a plant of course and I don’t think plants have particularly bad bacteria.

Someone put a pic of him on as he is now, he's a locksmith. I asked if he did the key change on the Just Say No single and he gave it a like. Pinnacle of my internet career

So I've seen this ad for Amazon's home spybot about a young woman who calls her father to help her save the dinner she's making for her new boyfriend(?). Yay, dad comes thru and the doorbell rings. Dad asks the guy's name and she turns him off. Way to raise a selfish letch, dad, who comes around begging for help then tells you to fuck off because you have the audacity to ask the name of your dinner date. Yeah, next time you burn the roast, fuck you, you're on your own.

I just had the strangest random memory pop up. When I was in grade 4, we had a written quiz about using "a" or "an" before a word. I would have gotten a perfect score but I put down "a" before the word "unicorn." And I tried arguing with my teacher that I was right because unicorn is pronounced as if spelled with a "y" on the front, that it's phonics that determines "a" or "an" (tho I wouldn't have put it that way at the time). But she said the rules were clear—"an" before any vowel, "a" before any consonant. I was so pissed off then and, like forty years later, I'm all pissed off now. How much of her refusal was about being in charge and not letting a ten-year-old chimp correct her mistake?

(She was widely hated because she screamed and kids. A lot. We had plenty of subs in grade 4 because she came up with a sore throat. Gee, wonder why.)

An unicorn just sounds stupid. She would have also made a good Nazi. She was just following orders!
