While unpacking today, I ran across a box of "vintage" chocolate pudding. To be exact, the expiration wasfrom sometime in 1998.

So naturally, I threw in some milk and ate it.

That was 2 hours ago. I'll let you all know if I suffer any negative side effects.

If you dont hear from me in 48 hours, assume it was the pudding.

You need to tell what brand so we can all adjust our REAL self life note. If we don't hear back from you we'll never know which brand is was that the the self life was correct. (sigh)

now, besides just being curious, why the hell would you do that to your internal organs? You could have eaten something better for you than that, like a raw chicken, cockroach sandwich, or toe nail clippings.

lol :)

Well, I'm still alive. No I'll side affect to the old puddin pack. The gaseous release, my wife reminded me, was probably due to the large pot of Hambeens I made the previous night.

So, go ahead folks, eat the pudding.

Hopefully that answers the unasked question I KNOW you all had....:cool:

Updating notes on the real shelf of Wal-Mart Instant Chocolate Pudding... 13 yr out of date is ok. Now how did it taste? Like chicken, chocolate or both? :p LOL

actually, It tasted just fine. I couldn't tell any difference between it and the fresh stuff.

All righty then! On a serious note, this kinda stuff really is good to know. If S ever does HTF its good to know what treat type comfort foods are good to keep on hand and what to expect from them.

Well, I figured that the unknown intestinal disease from Iraq be damned. My unfaltering loyalty to the forum convinced me this was info that had to get out.

And.... I like pudding.....

ok, you may have an unfair advantage of being inoculated prior to eating said possibly bad pudding.

Woooo Hoooo!!! YES!!! I know can pass the out dated food on to you that Justa wanted ME to try. :)


Speaking of being a guinea pig LOL I'll share this one this you. We were on a TP stockpile mission and soon found out how much room it takes to store a year supply TP. I even added a new attic access for TP storage that would also increase the R value.
One day while Justa was in the store standing in front of Buy one get one free 1000ct. Coffee filter for 99 cents ( I drink coffee but use a press so I don't use filters) and wanted to take advantage of the BOGO. I can just see her there standing with index finger and thumb resting under her chin and the wheels just a turning... then It hit her... Eureka!!! TP... It stack nice, doesn't take up much room so she came home with two packs. When I came home from work she filled me in with the great details, handed me six filters and told me to give them a try. Well not to go into detail but should I say... 1st I had a breaking though experience and it wasn't a good one. :o 2nd I could have used the whole 1000ct. pack, 3rd don't try this at home. (wink):o

An "increased" problem? If its considered a "problem" to begin with, wouldn't/ shouldn't it be a common enough occurrence to then be a non-issue?

ETA: I wasn't considering and had forgotten said intestinal issue, and retracted part of my statement, though it was all said tongue in cheek. I shall forthwith respond with more empathy to your plight.

Dude, you are more than welcome to pick at me. Everyhting is all in good fun. My wife constantly harrasses me about it. But then again, I do hold her head under the covers.

Please, don't apologize or hold back on my part. I've got a good sense of humor about it. I expect people to pick on me. If they didn't, I'd really feel like a freak.

Ok. Basically I said "suck it up and drive on." Then I realized that had a double meaning, and "sucking it up" could entail a great degree of physical discomfort, which was unfair to put on you :D

lol. Me too. My dad and I were just talking about that stiff-legged, quick paced gait unique to bowel issues earlier today. The mental images of today have had me rolling.

Yes, juvenile toilet humor is alive and well in my world.

It's fair game at my place too. My wife thinks I'm gross, I just remind her that she didn't have to marry me. She always comes back with something to the effect that I didn't do that while we were dating.

If Ida done that, Id never have got married. Had to bait the hook. LOL

and it sounds like you hooked a good one. I dutch ovened my ex once, early on in our marriage. We slept with separate blankets for the duration.
