How long is cottage cheese really good for??

I found a tub of cottage cheese in my fridge waaaay in the back dated January 16

Opened it and it wasn't moldy, nor did it smell funny. I tasted it (just a little) and it tasted fine.....

Toss it??

I'd just be wary of eating expired shit, 'cuz it has those dates on it for a reason. If you really don't notice a difference, I guess you could just eat it. Try a huge bowl, not a little taste.

Hmmmmm, an experiment may be in order....

You are crazy....if you have ever been sick on spoiled milk or cheese, you wouldnt even think twice..........I toss mine after a week, bar none.........

I wouldn't have eaten it. Expired food goes in the trash 10 times out of 10.

yum.....fermented cottage cheese....actually, I'm very happy that you didn't get sick, also makes me weary of the nutrient value of cottage cheese, or anything with a six month shelf life........

9 times out of 10 it is pretty safe

But if you have any doubt you may try to give to your cat first (j/k)

Update: I threw it out after all.....
