🧂🤔 Is that bottle of mayo in your fridge still good?
Not all condiments are created equal when it comes to food safety. While some condiments can last a long time, mayo, creamy dressings, and other egg- or dairy-based sauces are more likely to spoil after opening. Always check expiration dates and look for signs like unusual odors, discoloration, or changes in texture before using them.
🚨 Eating spoiled foods can lead to foodborne illness with symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach cramps.
