It’s a *limited edition* that has now been matured for nearer 18 *years*. I bet it tastes like…nothing you’ve ever had before.
🤣🤣 where’s that been sat for 15 years.🤣
Got a bottle of Angustura Bitters in the fridge from 1993.
We still use it…
You can’t leave us hanging; did you eat it? Did you die, or ascend to a higher plane?
I found a tin of beans in the cupboard the other day that missed their BBE in January 2019. I didn’t move in until Feb 2019. I’m sure I didn’t bring any food here with me. What the hell.
But yeah, I’m sure that pudding will be ace.
Hey, that’s just a ‘best before’, and best can be , well, subjective….
It’s still good… it’s still good…!!
In case you ever conceive of disposing this, Ashens on YouTube does videos on old food, he should have a PO box.
Unless it looks like absolute death, he will eat a tiny amount.
I imagine it will just be bone dry, but potentially not mouldy. Going by my ancient food experience.
i’d totally try some
I mean i ate one today that was 20 years past sell by date literaly couldnt tell diffrence to a new one
But i imagine the plastic leeched into it abit
My sister got married two years ago and she was in primary school when this went off. Blimey, that thing is a few days off being able to vote.
I tend to keep onto ones I’ve been gifted and eat them many years later – oldest I think was 15 and was still delicious!
That thing should be doing it’s GCSE’s it’s so old.
Had to make gravy round mum’s today. She spoons out some mush from a gravy tub into a pan of fresh stock i was stiring…”hmm that doesnt look right, lemme check that date” January 2021 🙃
This isn’t just any roadkill, this is Marks and Spencer’s gut-splitting, steaming innards, still alive and kicking, finish it off with the shovel from the boot roadkill. Merry Christmas
No posts from OP since. OP probs snuffed it to avoid being slightly ill mannered.
It’s the quintessentially British way to expire.
It says ‘Best Before’, not ‘Use by’. Should be fine 😉
I mean, Christmas puddings get better with age up to a point. I do not know where that point is, so this could even be great.
Let us know.
My husband and I ate some of our saved frozen wedding fruit cake to celebrate the birth of our first child…10 years after our wedding. Tasted about the same.
That’s outlasted 7 prime ministers
We ate one last week that was 9 months out of date. It was fine and tasted nice and no one shat out their innards.
My dad would have bitten her had off for it.
And then spent another ten years feeding it brandy until it’s sprouted legs and made its bid for freedom.
*206 month matured Christmas Pudding.
Found one on the back of a kitchen cupboard this year that’s definitely years and years matured, until it was just dry. Home made so no idea how long it was there
I love pud.
My dad can match this – he has a Heaton Blumenthal hidden orange Christmas pudding in storage also from Christmas 2010.
Once when I visited my parents I had a bag of tins shoved at me as I was leaving. My mum declared they didn’t eat soup (a lie), and that I needed to take them. It’s usually an argument if I don’t take whatever it is that’s foisted on me, that I just put them in the car. When I got home all of the soups had bbes of around 10-15 years old. I ended up just getting rid of all of them.
I was fed olives in some sort of chilli dressing by my Mum when we visited a few years ago. I cannot recall ever feeling so ill.
Symptoms included, but were not limited to, explosive shits, projectile vomiting, muscle cramps, hot and cold sweats and the icing on the cake, a skull-crumbling migraine. All of which lasted an entire day.
Turns out, the jar was best before June, 2005.
Enjoyed my stay immensely.
This is a portent telling me that heading out to markies for cheap boxing day pud will end in disaster, thank you teenage pud for your wisdom.
