Expired Food

I was just cleaning and organizing my in-law’s refrigerator with Manang Vcenta and I came across yogurt that has been expired from last year on the month of November and December. We realize the food was a lot and it is a waste of money. Manang Vcenta was concern what will her boss say about it.

I get stuck eating Filipino food because I am living with my family and I have no choice to eat what is served at the table. My sister and her family members love buying food from differe...
