8 Foods Safe to Eat After The Expiration Date

7. Salad Mixes And Root Vegetables: several weeks past expiration date

Most vegetables are safe to eat past the due date. You can always cut off the wilted parts of your leafy greens to enjoy the rest. Several weeks of prolonged life can be expected when it comes to root veggies like beets, carrots, and parsnips. However, it's also essential to know that the more water and oil a fruit or veggie contains, the quicker it will spoil. Thus, throw your produce away once they start to seem mushy and slimy.
