Can we eat this?

[iheartthe80s]

We have a Costco Take N Bake cheese pizza in our fridge. It has a sell by date of Feb 26. I had planned on it for tomorrow, since DH is working. So, what say you? Sell by date was this past Thursday.

[iheartthe80s]

Really? 28 views and not one response? LOL.

That's a tough one since sell by date and not expiration was last week...hmm I feel like I would make it if it looked and smelled ok. And I'm paranoid. Good old smell test is my rec

[iheartthe80s]

I am always so paranoid and I guarantee tomorrow I will end up pitching it. I hate that.

[momin2013]

I think it would be fine, personally.

[iheartthe80s]

I will give it a good whiff tomorrow. Wild Monday night!

[justbecause]

I think it'd be okay. They probably expect people won't go home and cook it immediately. 3-5 days out should be fine barring any smell issues.

I'd totally eat it, pending a visual/olfactory examination.

[lala]

Yep, I'd eat it. Sell by isn't use by. I'd say tomorrow is the cut off though.

[lattelady5]

I wouldn't even think twice about eating it. If it smells fine, bake it up and enjoy!

[auroraloo]

Sell by usually indicates eat within a week. It's fine.

[dizzycooks]

I'd cook it tonight and reheat it tomorrow.

Something like that I wouldn't be nervous to use past sell by. Sugar in pasta sauce is an excellent preservative. Plus what's cheese? Lol

[cabbagecabbage]

I would totally eat it if it looked fine.

It's not going to make you sick, but the dough might be past its prime. Pizza dough will not cook correctly if it's old. It will get too thin, puff up or not rise when you cook it. Typically it has yeast in it and is only good for so long, it also does not like a lot Of temperature changes.
Let us know how it turned out:-)

[lattelady5]

Well, did you eat it. I'm siting on the edge of my seat here.
