Generally, milk is good for 5-7 days past the date on the carton, even longer if the milk is unopened. However, depending on how the milk is stored, the milk could even spoil before the date (speaking from experience here). Do you have a carton of milk that’s started to sour? Don’t toss it; use it for baking!

Add it to pudding, hot chocolate, potato soup, cakes, biscuits, and pancakes for a dose of added flavor. Slightly soured milk can be used as a substitute for buttermilk in a lot of baked goods, and they’ll turn out delicious!
