Mouldy old dough
I got caught out with this last year with a packet of peanuts from Tesco and the use by date expired in November.
"In Glasgow, a pack of six Classics for Christmas mince pies had a best before date of November 17".
I don't accept the M&S explanation that people like to buy and eat these in the run up to Christmas. The clue is in the title Classics for Christmas, otherwise they would be called Classics for Autumn...
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.

jailhouselawyer,
Supermarkets increasingly capitalize on Christmas with their culture of greed ... the antithesis of the meaning of Christmas - 'goodwill to all men'.
That always annoys me too...
