More than 1 month expired na unopened tikoy, safe pa ba ito kainin? (Serious question)

[dothackjhe]

Di ko na matandaan specifically kung kailan ko nabili itong tikoy from Polland, pero upon checking earlier, ang expiry niya ay 6/22/2022. So, more than a month nang expired pla itong natambak na tikoy dito.

Note: Di ko agad-agad niluto yung tikoy dahil sa pagkakaalam ko may 3-month shelf life ito. Ang pagkakamali ko lang, di ko nacheck agad yung expiration date, so off-based yung tantya ko ng expiration niya.

Safe pa bang iluto at kainin ito since hindi naman siya nabuksan all this time?

Haha, isipin mo na lang lods magkano yung matitipid vs. pag ma food poisoning

Sabi dito OK pa kahit may molds

But, if you forget to refrigerate and there are mold sprouting out. Don't worry. They say the Chinese Tikoy taste better when it is already infected with molds. Just wipe of the molds with oil and it is good to go. =)

Sabi dito 2 months


Sabi dito dapat na ref daw

Does Tikoy expire?
Tikoy, eaten as it is (when fresh), is not as sticky as when it is fried. It is less greasy, too. However, to prolong the shelf life, Tikoy should be refrigerated and it will keep for a long time.

Iniisip ko nga rin kung iri-risk ko mafood poison kaysa itapon na lang ito.

Nabasa ko rin yung mga yan kanina.

Pwede rin lods, kain ka muna ng konti lang
Minimize possible effect

Mukhang intact pa naman yung vacuum pack at kung maayos naman ang storage, personally susubukan ko pa rin kainin. Syempre i-check ko muna kung may off sa itsura, amoy, tapos titikim muna ako ng konti. Pwede mo naman iluwa kapag may nalasahan kang hindi maganda o hindi maayos ang texture.

Consume before o best before date ba nakalagay o talagang expiry date? Kasi kung best o consume before ang tingin ko diyan eh safe pa rin kainin yun nga lang baka wala na sa ideal quality ng manufacturer yung tikoy.

 

[plhbg1]

if safe pa iyan it would defeat the purpose of expiry dates

 

[LoreinCute]

Prituhin mo na lng Lods sa wrapper pra at least dumaan sa fire at maluluto pra safe...

 

[M30W]

Pwede pa yan. Ilang months pa lang naman expired
Yung iba ngang walang makain, kumakain ng galing sa basurahan

 

[Sarhento Patola]

When in doubt, don't risk it.

Expiry date yung nasa label, though. Itatapon ko na lang ito. lol

You're missing the point of the question. May mga "goods" kasing pwede pang kainin past certain dates on certain labels, e.g., "best before" o "consume before".

Makes sense.

When in doubt, don't risk it.

Agreed.

Nope. Foods in trash are exposed to bacteria and oxygen compared to your steam cooked vacuum packed tikoy. They go bad faster..
Nakabili na rin ako ng ganyang tikoy at kinain ko kahit more than 2months expired na. Prito mo lang with egg, okay na
Most of the microorganisms got killed during steaming and vacuum packing removes oxygen to prevent bacterial or mold growth. Masasabi kong maayos ang pagkakapack nyang tikoy kaya sure ako na tatagal yan... Mas maayos pa yung packaging nyan kumpara sa packaging ng mga sikat na meat products katulad ng purefoods.

"How Long Do Rice Cakes Last? Properly stored, unopened rice cakes will last for 1-2 years past the printed expiration date. Once opened, if stored correctly in an airtight container, they will last for about 1 week. If not stored properly, opened rice cakes will only last a few days."

Nian Gao tawag ng mga intsik jan sa tikoy at normal na pinapatgal nila yan sa ref. Kahit 6-12months at may amag pa kinakain nila. Tinatangal lang yung amag tapos okay na

Pero ako, di ko kakainin yan kapag napansin ko kung iba na kulay, amoy, texture or may amag na kahit matagal pa expiry date.

di kasi sa lahat ng pagkakataon ay yung microorganism mismo ang nagko-cause ng sickness, sometimes it is the chemicals they produce (like in the case of tetanus)

steam cooked and vacuum sealed only slows down the growth (meron pa din activity yung microorganism) to extend quality of food and for how long is determined in the expiry date

so i would say there is a very good reason bakit andiyan ang expiry dates, your body has tolerance anyway but still health is at risk maybe not now but eventually in the long run

Yup. But steaming kills most of the microorganism so they can't produce toxins. And I'm sure they have other food preparation techniques to eliminate other heat resistant food pathogen.. if not, then di na aabot ng 3 months yang tikoy nila. Few days or weeks lang at marami na sana na food poison.

I'm not saying to ignore the expiration date though on other food items especially dairy, meat, poultry or egg products. Etong tikoy lang

nope, steaming only kills most of it, some variants can survive temperatures higher then steam, at yung iba is mga residual spore which is a piece of gene that eventually develop into a single cell, so no, it would take for the food to be burn altogether if we want to kill all

 

[Mednovskiy]

pass wag mo na kainin mas malaki gastos sa hospital baka mapano ka pa dyan

Steaming does kill or inactivate the vegetative cells of the bacteria or microorganisms that could make people sick. (There are microorganisms that survive boiling temperature but many of those does not make people sick. Yogurt and your intestines have bacteria). What survive is the heat resistant spores and this needs to germinate first before it could produce harmful toxins.
Vacuum sealing and refrigeration helps to inhibit the spore growth. And if it did successfully germinate, It will show signs of spoilage, di makakapagclaim yang manufacturer ng 3months expiry kung contaminated yang product nila ng heat resistant bacteria lalo na at yung ibang binebentang tikoy nakadisplay lang sa store at exposed sa ambient temperature
High temperature isn't the only way to kill/inactivate the heat resistant spores. FDA and those in the food industry are well aware of this and food processing technologies to inactivate the pathogen have been developed for decades.

if one spore successfully germinated does it spoil the food right away?
having one successfully germinated spore is not yet contamination?

 

[Away From Keyboard]

yung delekado ay yung mold at hindi ang bacteria.

 

[M30W]

if one spore successfully germinated does it spoil the food right away?

Yes but not noticeable if it's just from one cell. It will become noticeable once the bacteria multiply.

having one successfully germinated spore is not yet contamination?

I'd say yes, it is contaminated already since bacteria double every 4 to 20 minutes. Kung yang bacteria mo nagdodoble every 4 minutes, yang isang cell mo pwedeng maging 35 trillion cells na in just 3 hours (assuming optimal growth condition)

Actually, di ko gets yung ipinupunto mo. Please elaborate

ayan naman pala bakit mo sinabing mangangamoy spoilage if undetected naman pala sa manufacturer level at saka bakit mo din sinabing di makapaglagay si manufacturer ng expiry if contaminated when obviously kahit 1 surviving cell ay naglagay pa din siya ng expiry

those good manufacturing practices cannot zero out microorganisms, kaya pa rin merong expiry dates at hindi iyon decoration sa packaging, bitawan mo na ang myth about killing all microbes kasi di iyon totoo without totally burning the food
