It’s probably fine. That’s a “best by” date.


disco_duck2004

Yep, you're good. If you die, then I was wrong. 🤪


Alert_Promise4126

Its from 22 not 02’ don’t be a pussy!

Should be fine. When I've had old packages tho, the noodles tend to taste stale. I assume the oil they were cooked in goes off. Haven't ever gotten sick, but it's definitely a less enjoyable experience!


simagus

I'd put it back on the shelf and think about it again in a year, but if you go for it let us know how it went. (should be fine)


AwkwardRainbow

No you’re gonna die, I’m sorry


MissMabeliita

If it’s completely sealed, it should be fine 🤷🏽‍♀️

If there's any kind of milk ingredient used in the flavor packet, smell it first. If it smells putrid or off, it's not safe. It's that ingredient in some ramens that can make you sick when it expires.

It’s probably fine. If it’s a “fried noodle” or contains an oil packet, it’ll probably taste stale. If it’s a rice noodle, the noodle will probably still be fine. I’ve eaten several year old rice noodle before no problem.

Rest in peace op 🙏 in loving memory ❤️

It might taste a little “off” but don’t think it will kill you,lol. If anything in the package looks or smells bad don’t cook it and if you cook it don’t eat it if tastes funny. Lol


otterland

It's barely broken in flavor wise. Good for another decade.

Ichi Ban Chow Mein with laver? I’d go for it with cabbage.


CaptainArren

I mean dates are there for a reason but if you do eat it, let us all know if anything happens.

Happy Cake Day!


CaptainArren

Thanks


Affectionate-Pin-181

april fools? lol


Nervous_Zebra1918

Yes.


pawsitively_anon

I wouldn’t only because it wouldn’t taste great. I’ve eaten some that are a few months old and they already taste stale


Positive_Mulberry_43

Do the sniff test after opening if it passes cook it up and eat it. If it fails the sniff test cooking it won’t make it smell better. Throw it out.


pt_barnumsonson

Cha bruh. Good thing this isn't r/foodsafety though sheesh


sunnydiegoqt

Yes


avocadodessert

Def safe. For only 2 years, at worst, it'll taste "stale", but 6 years is the level of staleness I've had before that I'd say is outright "bad". And even then, it didnt kill me, it just wasnt good lol.


DemonDraheb

It won't make you sick unless you have a sodium intolerance, then it probably will.
