A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

Expiration dates are useful, but they are not usually a hard end point to a food's safety or edibility.
One's own nose is usually the best way to see if old food is edible. Doesn't smell good enough to eat? Don't eat it.
My sense of smell is pretty bad. I only keep milk in my fridge for coffee so it lasts a while, and once it's past the date I smell it every day assuming it could have gone bad. Usually it hasn't, but occasionally it has curdled into chunks, and apparently I can't tell the difference with my nose - only once the pour feels "off" or the chunks make their way into my coffee can I have any better indicator.
