    Lads/Lassies,
    I dicovered an old tub of X-plode yesterday in the press in which the use by date is 06/2009. Do you reckon it would still be okay to use it prior to a gym session?

    Had it been opened yet? If not I'd work away, if it was opened a good while back then I'd leave it, but then I'm very fussy.

    Is it actually a use-by date, or a best before or sell by date? For best before or sell by date, then fire away. Personally i wouldn't be very picky, so if it was a use-by date i'd take it anyway, unless it smelled or tasted bad

    Gnolan,

    I am not 100% sure if its the use by or best before date tbh. It has the month and year marked on the side. I think I am going to use it anyway. Shame for it to go to waste

    As far as I know supplements will loose their potency over time, your is only recently out of date so it should be ok. THat is if it has been sealed and doesnt look lumpy or smelly.
