I'm very careful about cross contamination, particularly with raw chicken, seafood, etc.
Expiration dates, otoh, just a guideline.

Oh, I agree, especially for canned & dry foods. I still sniff of milk, out of habit, though, every time I take it out of the fridge, no matter the date.
I think it just really scared her when my brother was so ill, so she goes a little overboard, even on the expiration dates.

Depends on the product. I find that most dairy products are fine after the exp date. Milk generally lasts 3-5 days after opening if before the exp date and the same if opened on the exp date IF it's been kept cold enough. I eat sour cream, yogurt and butter some days or longer after the exp date. I'm more finicky about meats.
