No recipe ideas (not even sure what parmalat is), but if it will go bad tomorrow wouldn't whatever you make with it also go bad tomorrow?

Isn’t it a ‘best by’ not ‘use by’ date?

 

[easyas123]

Make some mac & cheese and freeze it for another time/dinner?

from AI:

Parmalat milk uses a "Best if Used By" date, which is about quality, not safety. Once opened, refrigerate and use the product within about seven days. While the "Best if Used By" date is a guideline for peak quality, you can check for spoilage using your senses even after that date, as Parmalat milk is shelf-stable until opened and is often still safe to consume afterward.

Unopened, refrigerated Parmalat milk

• "Best if Used By" date: This date indicates when the product is at its peak quality, taste, and freshness, but not necessarily when it becomes unsafe.
• Shelf life: Parmalat Whole Milk has a two-month shelf life before opening if it's the refrigerated type.
• After the date: The milk may still be safe to drink if stored correctly, so check for signs of spoilage like a sour smell or lumpy texture.

Opened, refrigerated Parmalat milk

• Shelf life: Once opened, refrigerate the milk and use it within about seven days.
• Safety: After opening, the milk is no longer shelf-stable and will spoil much faster than unopened cartons.

Unopened, shelf-stable Parmalat milk

• "Best if Used By" date: This date indicates the period of optimal quality.
• Shelf life: This type of Parmalat is shelf-stable for six months if unopened and stored properly.
• After the date: The milk can still be good for a long time after this date, but quality may decline. Check for signs of spoilage, such as a lumpy texture, before using.
