I have an old package and it says "best by jul2317mud". does that mean it expired on july 2017?

I'd say it means exactly what it reads - the product tastes best if used before July 23, 2017 but it remains usable, just loses some of it taste. The same goes for most expiration dates. Hardly any dry or canned products are actually spoiled on the expiration date. Even medication remains usable, except the active ingredient loses some of its strength. And even milk etc. used 1-2 days after the expiration date remain usable and definitely don't poison you if used beyond expiration. You can taste it if it's no longer ok to use. If, for some reason, there is the slightest trace mold in it, of course, you can't use it -- even before the expiration date. It means you need to thoroughly clean your refrigerator. Well, that's actually a lot more than you wanted to know....

Can this be baked, if I use boiling water, then place in the oven? If so, at what temp and how long? Thanx!

I often use different knorr sides in a casserole. I find it easier to cook the noodles first and cook until they are al dente, firm. Drain the noodles. Don't add the other ingredients or the sauce to the noodles. Use the noodles in any casserole then add the sauce, etc. There is liquid in the casserole recipe so you don't need the boiled water. Makes the casserole too runny. I usually have to modify my casserole recipe so the amount of salt and butter is more realistic. Then cook your casserole as you normally would or as your recipe calls for. The sauce adds so much to any casserole. Everyone gobbles it down. Of course you fix the Knorr sides and add many things to make it it's own casserole and then there's no need for baking it - unless you put it all in a casserole dish and sprinkle bread crumbs or whatever on the top. Then I would bake it about 225 degrees for about 20 min - 30 min. Keep an eye on it. Hope all this helps. Be creative. Pennye E Parker

Why did your Creamy Garlic Shells taste like fish? There was nothing about it that said nasty fish flavor. GAGGGGGGG~

You are very right they do taste like fish. Me and my wife agreed and threw them away. I love sushi and ceviche both which are supposed to taste like fish , but not this pasta which is horrible!!!!

I cook and bake extensively. All of our meals are eaten at home with food I prepare. I am always looking for easy to fix meal items that can be used as a main dish or side dish. Knorr Pasta Sides Creamy Garlic is both delicious and fantastic for these meal additions! - Incredibly easy and quick to fix. - Delicious and full of mouthwatering flavors. - Very versatile in your meal rotations! Great as either a side dish or a main dish. Easy to make this Knorr pasta your own by adding ingredients such as prepared vegetables, chicken, shrimp, diced ham, grated cheese, or herbs. A few squeezes of fresh lemon juice is also a yummy addition. - The current $1.00 per pouch is an incredible value. I highly recommend this product.

These are always such a great item to use quickly as a side dish when you don’t have other items in the house to make homemade stuff. These packs are always super easy to prepare, and can’t beat the cook time! They cook very fast. These size bags usually always are a nice little side dish for my family of 4. It would be nice if it was just a little bit of a bigger pouch, but for the price I paid can’t really beat that it gives us something easy to prepare and eat. Taste was great, this flavor is always one of my favorites in this brand. Noodles cooked very well, no issues with them being undercooked or overcooked in my opinion by following the simple directions on the packet.
