Crap. I just noticed the packet of guacamole I've been eating with my pig chips is 2 weeks past it's date...

I think we've isolated the cause of death...
If it didn't taste mouldy it's probably not too bad. Non-meat items tend to spoil in fairly obvious ways. Considering guacamole tends to turn brown quite quickly there's a fair chance preservatives were used, further mitigating the risk. Considering you didn't notice it being discoloured, yours may contain quite an amount of it.
Naaahhh... this is Wholly Guacamole; it's a Tejas thing. The only thing in it is avocados, seasonings and a little vinegar. It is sold in a vacuum sealed tub; no air means it never turns black until the day after you open it. As you might imagine, this does make my meal a bit more of a concern.
Ingredients:
HASS AVOCADO, VINEGAR, JALAPENO PEPPER, DEHYDRATED ONION, SALT, GRANULATED GARLIC.
Bleah.....guacamole to me looks like green slime. And what the freak are "pig chips"? Are you sure we both speak English?
Until I moved to Tejas, I agreed. I could not, would not enjoy the taste of a guac, tho I tried many times. I am told this is because unless you live where they're growed, you don't get them even close to fresh. I think this makes guac really a Tejas/Cally-fone-ya thang.
But here, it's like a good alfredo sauce... expensive, but a delight to the tastebuds.
Pig chips... ummm, pork rinds, pork cracklins, chicharrones, fried bits of pig skin. The only chip-oid thing I can have when I'm being good.
Excellent with sour cream, cottage cheese or guac; some varieties even taste like bacon or BBQ.
But no, we don't speak English. We both speak 'merkin. I think its perfectly safe, the dates on packets is a conservative one anyway for safety sake and most stuff is packed in an inert gas to prevent food going mouldy etc so it means that the Dwagon is going to be with us for a bit longer yet
Damn. One silver lining would've been not being around when the holiday credit card bills arrive...

No, NOT like cow chips.
