Answer:No. It is not safe to eat anything that has passed its 'best by date' or 'sell by date' ~ these are warnings for us so that we don't get sick with food poisoning. Some people may get away with this every once in a while, but it is NOT worth the risk as food poisoning is absolutely the pits. So please stick to the dates for your own health and throw it away. Rather be safe then sorry!

The best way to make it last is to freeze it. If it don't look good or smells funny then throw it out. The best date is an educated guess.

When food says inthe expiration date best by after the date is still be adible?

It is likely your food is still edible when it is already past the best by date, as well as the expired. Try smelling the food and looking at it. If it smells or looks unusual, either remove the pieces that look problematic or throw it all out. It is however safest to not eat food past its best by date.

Can you drink milk on the same day as the expiration date?

Of course you can, provided that the milk has been stored correctly (ie in a refrigerator/fridge) and there is no apparent spoiling. Expiry dates on food have quite a bit of leeway, so use common sense when deciding whether or no food is edible. Some food well past its 'expiry date' is still perfectly edible. We throw away far too much food in the Western world - food that is perfectly OK - shameful really when there are millions starving in the world.
