I have also given myself food poisoning 3 times.
Har. Sorry. Heh.
Of course, now I can't decide if my tummy feels funny due to bad food or just because I have to get dressed now for an interview.
The count of three isn't a plan. It's Sesame Street.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What is even happening?
Jesse, I always live by "When in doubt, throw it out," because I would pay whatever the food cost (times 10), not to get sick.
That said, you've already eaten this. So, I wouldn't worry about it. I would also drink the hottest tea I could find, not founded on any scientific theory, but rather upon a firm--albeit vaguely defined--theory, that it couldn't hurt, and might help. And no, I don't know why, except it's tea! It's tea! It's tea, and it's made with boiling water, and something good might come of it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

All the tea molecules go up to the evil food-poisoning chemicals and say, "Dude. I just came from boiling water. I'm so gonna kick your ass."
It's true. Because it's science.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I think the best way to conquer the food-poisoning chemicals is through judicious application of liquor, preferably tequila.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
Since we're talking about food poisoning, how can you tell when milk is starting to go bad? Do you go by the date on the carton or by smell?

Plus, tequila has vitamin C.

Hot tea + booze. Got it.
I figure it's OK, since quiche is the kind of thing people say is ok to put out on a room-temperature buffet.

Smell. Also, presence of solid material in the carton.

Smell, but any time I smell anything past the date, I think it smells bad.

I just take a little taste. I think milk will taste bad before it actually will be bad for your stomach.
You might be able to tell by smelling it too.
