Foods that are left out in room temperature for more than an hour can begin bacteria growth. Our stomach acids can kill some of these bacterias but not all and some can make you very sick. Keep foods OUT of the danger zone- Above 45 degrees and Below 145 degrees. Between these temperatures bacteria lives and breeds on our foods.

Several factors. Does it have a useby date? If so, if it is past it, do NOT use it. If you're less cautious or if it does not have a useby date, does it look discoloured or smell funny? If so, do NOT use it.
ive used juice a month out of date and its been ok. make sure you give it a good shake first.
Unless you want to SELL it ... then, yes, it is still good to cook and eat ... as long as it has been kept properly refrigerated.
Yogurt almost always has a sell-by date rather than an expiration date. If refrigerated, opened yogurt is good to eat for 1 week after the sell-by date. Unopened, it is good for 2 to 3 weeks beyond the sell-by date.
Usually the sell by date, but it is still a good guide to when it is ok to eat the food. If it's too long after the sell-by date, it probably won't be good anymore. The dates stamped on canned goods should indicate what they mean. The print will say, 'sell by' or 'use by' or 'best before' and so on, depending on food legislation in your area.
Normally, the sell by date also gives the consumer a short amount of time(minimum) to consume the good.
