We eat loads of "expired" stuff. It gets tossed if it looks bad, smells bad, or tastes bad. Expiry dates are generally an artificial device, originally introduced to help educate the public about food poisoning, but let's think about who really benefits from short "sell-by" and "consume-by" dates, and then consider corporate entities wondering how to make the most out of this "infringement on their rights"........ toasters used to last 20 years. Now they last 13 months. Who do/could "use by" dates benefit the most?
