How long before rice cakes go bad?

2 to 3 days

Is it safe to eat food 1 day past use by date?

Most products have very conservative use by dates, meaning that the company prints dates before they think the product will actually go bad so that they can't be sued if someone does get sick from eating spoiled food. In other words, most products will be perfectly fine for at least a few days after the use by date.

Can you eat eggs after use by date?

If you keep your eggs in the fridge, you can eat them up to three weeks after the use by date. ... Another way to check if they're still good is to drop them in a bowl of water, a fresh egg will sink and a bad one will float.

How do you tell if an egg is OK without breaking it?

Simply fill a bowl with cold tap water and place your eggs in it. If they sink to the bottom and lay flat on one side, they are fresh and good to eat. A bad egg will float because of the large air cell that forms at its base. Any floating eggs should be thrown out.

Can you eat an egg that tilts up?

If the egg lies horizontally, it's at its freshest. If the narrow end of the egg tilts upward, the egg is still usable, but not quite as fresh. ... If the egg stands upright (but is still at the bottom of the container), it's past its peak, but is still safe—use these eggs for baking or hard-boiling.
