If its milk it will probably taste bad but not hurt you.
Juice or pop still OK. If your drink has not been refrigerated and is a sugar drink it could be growing bacteria and probably make you feel ill. If you did drink something past its due date you would feel the negative effects within 2 hours. So if its past this time and you feel good - you should live.

The date of the Gatorade is not that old. If it has been inside and away from the sunlight, it should be OK. Since Gatorade is almost like glucose, the worse thing that could happen is to have a slight breakdown of the sugars that will change the taste. If your drink tasted like a new Gatorade, you can thank your lucky stars.
Product date codes are a suggested time of retained freshness. The Food and Drug Administration has the date system for a family of drinks. They will not specify only Gatorade. You will be fine.

I would say, if was milk, u drank cheese, LOL.
Drinks like that can get rancid and stale. Not adviseable, but you probably just get a mild stomach ache. If was never opened, still had a seal on it, it may be tolerable.

Only if it's wine or honey. Wine gets better with age. Honey is the only food that doesn't spoil. Anything else throw out with the exception of bottled water.

Throw it away! Better to drink a glass of water than to drink something you are in doubt about.

Hell yes
All depends how thirsty you are and the product
I will not drink milk over a week old no matter what the date.

If it's milk or something perishable like that. I'm sure if it's water or wine or something it's good. Your best bet would be to sniff it, and if it passes the "Smells okay" test, then have a swig!

If its booze then the longer you wait the better, if its pershiable ie milk then toss it no use getting sick over a couple of dollars.

It depend on what it is--was it something canned or boxed--it may be fine--was it alcohol then probably ok--Milk I would have to say no--but the smell would be so bad that it would be obvious--so you would have to say what it is
