I am very fortunate in that I do not have to make those decision. If the OP is accustomed to these practices, I'm sure he or she knows how to determine if the packaging has been compromised, can read the dates on the packages, and washed the packaging. OP, you do what you need to do.
Yoooooooo I get that it's cured and dried and shit, but don't eat that!
You have no idea what the conditions of storage on that.
This. I'm actually surprised at the deluge of negative reactions here. Are you all unaware how much damn food is thrown away for no good reason? It's a huge mess.Exactly. its a fucking shame how much still perfectly usable food is thrown away every day. People like OP arent idiots who eat raw flesh out of the trash, that sealed jerky, if not over its time, will be perfectly fine.
To be honest, I am not surprised the slightest.Lots of weird knee jerk reactions in here I didn't quite expect from ERA tbh.
no not the same person but that's funny i was influenced by that post on the old place. I just happen to dumpster dive on Saturday.Are you the same dude who made this topic back at the old place?
Divers gonna dumpster, I guess.

It's definitely not for everyone, and sometimes it's too much for me too, but the amounts of perfectly fine food I've found is ridiculous. I did this a TON in Norway and we feasted like kings AND saved so much money.
In Germany there's a growing food sharing initiative that aims to save this food before it reaches the dumpster by having trusted people collect it from supermarkets and stuff and distribute it among the community.

Which means losing money and having perfectly edible food go to waste?
i have ate like 5 of them since Saturday and food poison symptoms occur within 48 hours at the most. I feel fine, if anyone wants me to post a video or a gif of me eating it tell me to do so in this thread.I mean that's a good brand and all but are you really gonna eat jerky out of the garbage and not get sick? Is it worth the risk?
Usually it's past the "best before" date and that's it. I feel like you're putting too much trust into the people deciding what gets tossed and what not.1. Weird knee jerk reactions are an ERA specialty
2. Sealed or not I'm not pulling food that is suppose to be non perishable out of a dumpster and eating it. I don't want to find out what went wrong for them to go "Yeah get rid of that."

I know right the store i work at throws away tons of food like chocolate, chips and cookies at even expired yet. But its funny some of the food has been recalled like case of water.Which means losing money and having perfectly edible food go to waste?
I swear supermarkets have caused such a disconnect between the stuff we buy and where it comes from/where it ends up.
Yeah I've noticed this too, and taken advantage of it.Craigslist free section. Rich people give away a lot of nice furniture.
I thought this was gonna be about OP finding some cool tech, but dude found beef jerky...
Ok here is a pic for proof and a video of me eating the jerky.

and the video
I think people underestimate the effect of loot boxes on youth
What went wrong with it is that it reached the arbitrary date on the package saying they can no longer sell it which is always months before the food is actually bad.
free shit yo!If you're not homeless... why? Why sell your dignity for some free garbo? Just act normal in your life, ffs.
lol
Looks like evidence you'd find at a murder scene.
At the Smart & Final I used to work at, the opposite was usually true.
Imagine dumpster diving for beef jerky
Imagine living that life
