Can you cook prawns just 1 day out of date?

Answer 1

I bought the M&S 1234 curry thing the other day. I bought the marinated prawns one. The rest of the bits are fine but the prawns ran out yesturday. I have been doing a few evenings and tonight is the first time I actually can have a meal at home as was very much looking forward to eating it tonight.

Answer 2

Depends how they have been stored. Use by dates are not magic, they are a guideline, and mostly it depends on storage. Kept frozen or chilled, yeah you should be fine. Left on a hot porch in direct sunlight, then they will be ready to walk away on their own long before the use by date is up.

Answer 3

POOPOO CACA THEY WIOL TASTE LIKE POOOOO

Answer 4

Odor is the key to knowing if shrimp or prawns (all seafood actually) have gone bad.Prawns/shrimp will have an acrid sulferous smell.Short of that,they should be fine.

Answer 5

Better not to. I have found that when the boats come in loaded & they are cheap. It is best to buy them from the boat. Put them in ice & take home. What you are not using that day. Clean put in bags in lightly salted water & freeze. They froze are good for a month. But for best thaw & use that day. A extra day in the fridge they start to loose some fresh taste I find.

Answer 6

There is no such thing as food being out of date. 1 day will be fine. Remember that the date is to protect the store, not you.

How do you think we managed without dates? USE YOUR SENSES - if they still look and smell OK, they ARE OK.

Answer 7

The out of date tag is just a warning. It is a tactic to prevent law suits.

Answer 8

Sure thing, if they smell OK. Check to see if the date says "expires," "use by" or "sell by." If it's "sell by," seafood should be fine for another 3 days.

Answer 9

If they smell fine, yes. If they're starting to stink, no.

Answer 10

I'm sure they will be fine.If they don't smell bad then they are probably good to eat.
