Hi guys,

Just had a sort out of my cupboards in time for the "big shop" (kids coming home for Christmas) and have founda M&S Christmas pudding from last year, it went out of date in August.  Ive not opened it to see if its mouldy yet, but does any one think it will still be  edible and if so should I add any thing ... ideally alcohol?

Hate to throw food out. Mind you I suppose the birds would enjoy it.

many thanks

Julie

I'd use it! I've eaten them several years out of date with no probs...

If it looks and smells ok i would eat it.
If you are going to buy a spare, http://www.thegoodfoodguide.co.uk/news/lidl-tops-the-Christmas-pudding-test

I think Lidl have had top pud for the past couple of years.

I'll eat it if you don't want it

Me, the memsaab and the Mother in Law (Gawd bless 'er) are having a Christmas pudding I found in the back of the cupboard.   Use by date  -  2007  and that isn't just after 5 past eight!   Cheers.    See you in A & E    Tony.
