christmas pud
We have got a few Christmas puddings from Mraks and Spencer.
The display date is until 15 Jan and the best before date is 22Jan.
That is only I week, I thought that these things were like wedding cake, in the way that you can keep them for years.....

Re: christmas pud
Best before isn't hugely significant. It isn't as tho it will turn to toxic waste at midnight on the 22nd.

I had shredded wheat that was 2 months out of date for breakfast, still as crispy as ever.
