PAM Cooking Spray

[rymrytr]

Been sitting on the shelf in our "cool storage" room, (built as part of the external wall of the Basement).

Its expiration date was Feb 2006. Never opened or used.

Should I use it or pitch it?
:o)

It's basically oil, and oil can go rancid. I'd chuck it.

[karmen]

ooh that stuff can go rancid I would pitch it.

[heretic_x]

Yes...pitch! I once made the mistake of using an older can without checking the exp. date, yuck!!

[londonbard]

Pitch it or use it for something that isn't related to cooking, (removing sticky labels, lubricating, deterring pests, etc.)

This... I was going to say that Pam is great for squeaky hinges in the house, lol!

i was going to say this too. i'm not a fan of Pam though at all. it turns into a gluey substance on a lot of different non stick surfaces.

i work for a kitchen supply store, and i cannot even tell you how many people have come back being WTF this pan SUCKS I want my $200 back. "did you read the instructions" "instructions? on a pan?" "yes, it says do not use spray non stick spray"

i'm sorry, this makes me sound all sanctimonious and judgey. I use pam for baking from time to time.

Use it like a can of spray paint to "draw" designs on the street, then set them on fire with a kitchen longmatch.

... Er, at least, that would have been my suggestion 25 years ago!

It costs a buck and some change--why risk it?
