good move. I once opened a container of expired hot chocolate, to discover it was full of tiny dead bugs. I discovered this after having prepared hot chocolate, but thankfully before drinking any.
They sound like grain weevils. I had a similar thing happen a long while ago when I tried to cook mac’n’cheese only to find the box was filled with dead bugs.
I would have drank it. But I’ve been known to eat clam chowder that expired 3 years ago. It was no longer white and creamy but tan like dolche de leche. I was very sick for awhile….
I live in a shared house and when we moved in, our landlord said we could help ourselves to his food. We have verrry different dietary habits (we’re mostly vegan and try to be healthy and he lives off “student food”- pot noodles and instant burgers- and fry ups) so for the most part we didn’t bother, but we did find some red kidney beans in the freezer!
So we put them in a pan and cooked them. And cooked them. And cooked them… After three times the recommended cooking time we looked at the packaging.
It had a use by date of 2015.
