I'm more of a stickler for dates on some things, mainly meat, diary etc...
Yep, me too. After all, what use is an out of date diary to anyone?

Meat and diary you can just look at and smell. I am careful with eggs though.
And I stopped eating yoghurt in dim light. Once I ate already two spoonfuls when I wondered about the taste. When I turned on the light, I saw it was covered in green mould! But it was a yoghurt I only bought the day before and that was well before the "use by" date. Hence, you always need to check what you are eating and not just go by the stamp!

If it smells ok I eat it.
Keep it for a few years and the dates and days will match again. just the year will be wrong.

If you put eggs past their date in a bowl of water and they sink, they're fine to eat. Floating eggs is a no-no, apparently.

Yes, as they're full of gas. Even with two-week-past-their-sell-by eggs, I have never had a floater (egg I mean).
I know, TMI.
Where's my coat?

I read a story a while ago about a couple who got a Buxted tinned chicken when they married and 50 years later they ate it....

And I recall that 90 year old canned food ( meat of some sort ) from Scott's antarctic expedition was still edible
