Você sabe como dizer que um produto está fora da validade em Inglês?

You've been very busy at work and don't have much time to go shopping for food. One day, when you decide to take a look at what you still have in the fridge, you see most your food is past their sell-by date. A sell-by date is a date put on food products to show the latest date that they can be sold. If some food's past its sell-by date, it means the food should not be consumed because it's very likely to be rotten. So there you have it. Next time somebody asks about the sell-by date of some food, you already know what you're supposed to look for.

The thing is, that expression is also used in a figurative way referring to people too old to be useful or wanted. Just like the food whose sell-by date is exceeded, when someone's past his sell-by date, he can be judged by his great age. For example, some woman you know wants to have a baby, but she's been single for a very long time and now she may be too old to be pregnant. While telling her about the risks of having a baby at such advanced age, she tells you: There's plenty of time to have a baby, I'm not past my sell-by date yet. That means she doesn't see herself as someone very old and therefore can keep a pregnancy. That's it for now guys. See you next time!
