Just opened a can of anchovies for a pizza and they stunk worse than usual. Had hubby come and give it the sniff test and he said they were spoiled. The tin was marked as good until October of 2013.
Has anyone else noticed a barrage of spoiled food that's supposed to be good? Come on, stuff is expensive enough without having to throw it out or drive thirty miles back to the store with a stinking can of anchovies to get my couple of bucks back.
I had been buying the store brand of rye bread and within 3 days it got green molded. I stopped buying it. I should have returned it but I could not be bothered. This week I bought pepperidge farm rye bread.
You get what you pay for from my experiences. Budget/cut-rate brands deliver what one might expect and as a result would recommend buying the more reputable national brands or better yet....something fresh and locally produced if available.

disagree about cheaper store brands- they are usually packaged side by side with national brands.
agree about fresh

Stop it.
Agreed!
We are constantly running into these types of issues. Sell-by dates are consistently close to current date, I am also noticing dates on items such as cheese both block and sliced are running close. Another problem is veggies from the frozen section that are freezer burnt.
We have reached out to the grocer (as have many others, based on comments on their social media pages) and have gotten no where. It is as though the grocer could careless.
I used to have a lot of milk that spoiled even before it's sell-by date but in the past year I've stuck with a market that's been advertising "guaranteed fresh milk" and I have yet to have a bad bottle. If one market can do it, why can't they all?

Mine wasn't even the store brand. It was the pricey "health food" brand. I really don't appreciate a loaf of bread that goes moldy in three days. I've run into a lot of nonsense in the last six months.
