Er....I see you've never gotten ahold of a rotten egg. Not that they go bad immediately after the date if they've been properly refrigerated the whole time but I always do the pitcher of water test to be sure.0 -

No, 5 years ago, like I said. Bit over 5 actually.
March 2013 to July 2018 is over 5 years - unless I am even worse at maths than I thought

Never got sick. I think they just write that just to protect themselves in case it does happen to make someone sick.0

I realize this is an old thread, but food safety is always a good topic for discussion. Just a helpful tip... I've started writing the date that I open it on any container that has a "once opened use within so many days" advisory. I tend to lose track of time once things are opened, and while I might use things longer than recommended for myself, I won't risk making my family sick. Some things like almond milk I don't worry too much about, but I think egg whites are a little different. I wouldn't crack open a bunch of eggs & leave them in the fridge for over a week, so why would I keep a carton of egg whites that long?0
