I was told in a cooking class that you use that date for drinking but if you are going to use the milk for cooking you have about 4 days or so after the date.

Is cereal considered cooking? It does involve several steps.

Yesterday I bought cottage cheese from my cafeteria at work and I brought it home. A few hours later, I go to the fridge, grab my small cup of cottage cheese, and take a big bite.
Anyway, after almost throwing it up, I spit it out into the sick and throw the rest away.
The cottage cheese was almost rancid tasting.

My mom brought home a block of cheese the other day that already had mold on it.
Speaking of cheese, I'm going the the 'rents for fondu night sunday. Maybe I should avoid gross cheese conversations untill then...

On average, if the milk container has been kept in the fridge, not left out on the counter or anything, than it is usually good for a few days past the exp date. I'll have to look it up and see, since I'm not sure which milk is, but "sell by" and "use by" dates are very different. Does the jug say "sell by" and a date or "use by" (or neither)?
• Best if used by and use-by date: With emphasis on the best qualifier in this term, it means the product should retain maximum freshness, flavor and texture if used by this date. It is not a purchase-by or safety date. Beyond this date, the product begins to deteriorate, although it may still be edible.
• Expiration date: If you haven't used the product by this date, toss it out. Other dating terms are used as a basic guideline, but this one means what it says.
• Sell-by or pull-by date: This date is used by manufacturers to tell grocers when to remove their product from the shelves, but there is generally still some leeway for home usage. For example, milk often has a sell-by date, but the milk will usually still be good for at least a week beyond that date if properly refrigerated.
• Guaranteed fresh: This date is often used for perishable baked goods. Beyond this date, freshness is no longer guaranteed although it may still be edible.
Well I just went and checked the half and half I used this morning in my coffee, and it said sell by Sept 3rd. So if I throw up I'll let you guys know.
