It is smarter to toss foods that are questionable than to risk a repeat of the Ohio church dinner Botulism disaster from a few days ago.

Yep. food poisoning is a nasty, nasty thing. When in doubt, throw it out.

No one is talking about Botulism or that green moldy science project under your kid’s bed.

The thing is people throw out unopened food past the best used by and expiration dates. One, the government insists on the dates and two, the manufacturer can put earlier dates on the product so you’ll have to buy it more often. Related to that is how much the manufacturer recommends its use - you really don’t have to use as much laundry detergent as the jug says but by doing so you’ll buy less of their product.
