Seems to me that I can drink milk about a week past its expiry date...I believe skim milk last longer than, say, whole milk.

I go by the smell test and if I detect the slightest hint of something foul, I dump it down the drain.
I use the week-beyond rule as well.

Suggestion... buy the half gallons of organic milk... it costs more, but it's good for like 1 1/2 months.
