    A national (not US) cake company uses expired ingredients because it’s cheaper. Yes, I did report them to the authorities.

      And nothing happened after you reported them I assume?

        AFAIK they did get a couple visits from sanitary inspectors, but I haven’t been in contact since.

      You say “not US”, can you elaborate? In the US, expiration dates mean absolutely nothing regarding food safety. I’m not sure if that applies elsewhere, though.

        Brazil. Here, expiry dates are taken VERY seriously. Fines for selling bad food can quickly rise to hundreds of thousands of dollars per occurrence.

          I imagine in countries with tropical areas, expired food can kill a lot of people very quickly.
