Many people use the sniff test to determine if milk has gone bad, but a chef suggests pouring it into a cup first. Sometimes, the smell might come from the bottle itself and not the milk, she says.

Are you binning your milk when it has a funny smell? You might be wasting it days before it's actually due to be thrown out.

The This Morning chef instead advises dairy lovers to pour your milk or yoghurt into a cup and wait a few seconds, before giving it another sniff to see if the smell has gone."When you open a bottle and it still smells a bit off, I'd pour it out before you smell it because in a cup it may not . It could be just the bottle that smells off at the top."

The sell-by date on milk refers to the last date a retailer is advised to sell the product. This does not necessarily mean the milk will spoil immediately after that date.
