Am I okay?

[Sophie]

I feel like such a dumb dumb. I made myself a smoothie today and put in a good amount of milk earlier today at like 4 pm and it’s currently 8 pm. I came home and decided to have some cereal but when I went to the fridge, I had the urge to look at the date on the milk jug that I had also used for the smoothie before pouring and saw that the expiration date was four days ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am petrified I am going to get sick from it. It didn’t taste off, but I wouldn’t be able to tell bc it was blended into strawberries and bananas. I am so stressed outttttttt.

Was it an expiry date or best use before X date? If something was wrong you'd be sick by now.

The date on milk usually means that the milk should be good for 7 days after. We've consumed milk in our household many times past the date without any problems. We live 18 miles from the closest place to purchase milk so we buy 3 gallons at a time for just the two of us so often the final one is consumed past the freshness date. I think you'll be fine.
