On or about the 28th Wifey discovered a box of those Tuna fish pouches on the back of a top shelf in the pantry.
She says "Ewwww, some of these expired in June 2007 and some in May 2010, we need to throw these things out!"
Now I says "Not so fast there my little love muffin, they are probably OK."
"Im not eating that"
"It'll be fine dear."
"Just to be on the safe side, lets throw it out"
"No, lets keep it, you never know. Maybe we can feed it to the cats or the TAST (dog) if times get really tough."
"Whatever. Im not eating it and you are NOT feeding it to the animals!"
"Look, the pouches are not bloated or punctured in any way. Here I will open one and eat some."
The moment of truth arrives and the pouch is opened. Smelled fine. Tasted fine.
"You want me to eat the whole thing to prove its OK?"
"No, you win."
<---my shocked face. 35 years and I can count the times she has said that on one finger.
"We will wait a little while to see if you need to go to the ER or not...."
I return to making a new batch of Laundry soap (another story)
A little while later she comes up to me and says " You know what Tuna Suprise is?"
"Yes" says I "Tuna Casserole? Right?"
"Surprise! We are having Tuna for supper!"
She put 2 more packs tuna from 2007 along with the one I already opened.
Honest to gosh, I kid you not, we could not tell the difference between those packs and a new one.
Cats like the tuna too, TAST was more interested in the noodles and the bacon on the side.
DISCLAIMER: YMMV
