Is sweetened condensed milk dated over 24 months still good to use?

It is generally safe to use sweetened condensed milk that is past its "best by" or "use by" date, as long as it has been properly stored. Sweetened condensed milk is a shelf-stable product that is made by removing water from milk and adding sugar. This process creates a concentrated milk product that has a long shelf life.

The "best by" or "use by" date on sweetened condensed milk is not a safety date, but rather an indication of when the product is at its best quality. After this date, the product may start to lose some of its flavor and texture, but it should still be safe to eat.

If you are unsure whether sweetened condensed milk is still good, there are a few things you can look for. First, check the can for any signs of damage or leaks. If the can is damaged, it is best to discard the product. Second, take a look at the milk itself. If it has changed color or texture, or if it has an off smell, it is best to discard it.

If the sweetened condensed milk looks and smells fine, it should be safe to use. However, it is always best to use your judgment and discard the product if you have any doubts about its safety.
