This means that, overall, the air in the inside the bag pushes outward harder than the air on the outside of the bag pushes inward.” Storing yogurt the correct way will help it to last considerably longer. Below are the four methods you’ll need to keep yogurt fresh past its expiration date. 1. Seal The Yogurt Pot Tightly It goes without saying that mold is never a good sign, especially if it appears on your food. Bad yogurt doesn’t always have mold, but moldy yogurt is definitely always bad.

You may be wondering whether this change will affect the freshness of our delicious yogurt, which is why we’ve put together this handy guide. Read on to find out our top storage tips!

That said, even if your feline friend seems to be okay with dairy products, they shouldn't have much of it. That's because dairy products tend to be high in fat, which could lead to wealth gain and other health problems such as pancreatitis or diabetes. Since you’re here, I take it this happened to a cup or two of yogurt in your fridge. Now, you’re wondering whether or not they’re safe to eat.

Every now and then, when you open a yogurt pot, you’ll notice that there’s a thin layer of water on top. This layer is called “whey,” and it’s actually a gold mine of nutrients. As this whey is not a sign that the yogurt is bad, you can simply stir the pot and enjoy the treat as usual. Cross-contamination in food is a serious issue. While many people might overlook this problem, you should know that cross-contamination can speed up the spoiling rate of your yogurt and even give you food poisoning. Stretching to create an airtight, secure seal, our Lid keeps leftovers fresher for longer in your fridge – whatever you’re storing.Opened yogurt might also catch unpleasant odors from other foods and drinks stored in the fridge. While this might not necessarily spoil your yogurt, it certainly will affect the overall taste or smell of this treat.

There wasn’t much helpful information out there, so I set out to do some research and then wrote this post. So here’s everything you need to know on the topic of bulging yogurt. At this temperature, the bacteria multiply aptly and feed on the sugars (called “lactose”) in the milk, producing greater and greater quantities of lactic acid, diacetyl, butyric acid, and alcohol as byproducts. I found myself doing the same a few days ago when I opened my fridge, and it caught my attention that the lid on a seemingly good Greek yogurt container had all of a sudden puffed up. Bottom line: If you suspect that your yogurt has gone bad, it’s best to dispose of it and get new ones. Don’t do a taste test or risk your health eating it, as you might expose yourself to harmful and potentially life-threatening bacteria.

As for how to avoid getting the watery stuff in the first place? It’s totally normal for whey to pool up in yogurt, so there’s not much you can do to prevent it, say Fletcher and Sauceda. This problem can also happen with regular or drinking yogurt. As the dairy product ferments, it will release gas, causing the container to bulge. In some extreme cases, the lid might “pop” off. You can use the different colours of lids to mark which product to use up first, reducing food waste further At high altitudes, the pressure inside the bag is still the same as sea level air pressure, but the air pressure outside the bag is lower,” explains a resident of Evergreen, Colorado, a town at 7,165 feet above the sea. However, yogurt bacteria are not capable of producing gas. So they can’t cause the lid on the yogurt container to bulge. When this happens, it’s probably a sign that the S. thermophiles or L. bulgaricus cultures are dying off and getting superseded by gas-producing bacteria.

So if you have an opened pot of yogurt, you need to put it in an airtight container before storing it in the fridge. This should protect the yogurt from strong odors and harmful bacteria. Leave yogurt pots unopened if possible. 2. Avoid Cross-Contamination Yeo Valley is introducing reusable lids for its 350g and 450g yoghurt tubs from January 2023, which will be available to consumers through the exchange of ‘Yeokens’ in an online loyalty scheme. Sometimes, the foil lid on a yogurt container will bulge at the top, even if you haven’t opened it and it isn’t past its expiration date. Next, the milk is cultured with Streptococcus thermophiles ( S. thermophiles) or Lactobacillus bulgaricus ( L. bulgaricus) bacteria and left out at a temperature of 113°F for 4 to 12 hours.
