If the expiration date has expired, the product is no longer worth eating.

Some people think that if they process it, and, for example, fry or cook such food, they can reduce the danger. But this is not true.

Gastroenterologist Ekaterina Kashukh told Gazeta.Ru in more detail.

She noted that such products will have to be abandoned, even if they look good and the mold has only appeared in a small area.

You can't just cut off the mold, because the entire product is already contaminated. As a result, the person begins to have health problems.

For example, if you eat stale bread, you will experience nausea, headache and other unpleasant symptoms.

The most dangerous products are protein products - semi-finished meat products, meat, cheese, eggs, etc. If you eat them after the expiration date, there is a high probability of poisoning.
