I buy expired bread all the time, I use it to feed deer and other
critters but I eat some myself, nothing wrong with it. On Lung
Guyland I lived within walking distance of the Entenmens factory
store, every product cost $1... was nothing wrong with it, restaurants
bought lots to serve at ridiculously high prices... new owners, now
it's crap.
