How do food manufacturers pinpoint expiration dates? Do the dates imply a certain time the product may expire, such as midnight or noon?

And exactly how accurate are expiration dates? I've had food that became rotten too early. But some other products, such as milk, seems to be safe until a day or two after the date.

Is it strong? Does it taste good? Does is really give you hallucinations like they say, or is it more of just a regular drunken state? Where did you have it at?

I have several left over gingerbread cookies from a party. Any suggestions on recipes that are simple and use gingerbread crumbs?

Even the bottle says to remove the thing after cooking!

My mother used to stress over the bay leaf and it would always be in my fathers food!

She told me you don't eat it because it is poisonous but that doesn't make sense if we can have it cook in our foods.

So is it poisonous or just really hard to chew up?

and why you choose to be a vegetarian? I am a vegetarian simply because I adore animals. I stopped eating non veg foods since 1984. My wife and children eat nonveg food but I have no problems.
How about you??

Even though I enjoy the taste of meat, over the years I'm becoming more conscious of what I'm doing with the fact that it's better for the environment to eat a vegetarian diet(and becoming more concerned about animals being killed as well. No I'm no danged PETA hippy), but would like to start off slowly and not miss out on any nutrients. What would be a first good step to take?
And which foods can I eat to keep my protein and iron levels up?
