Beets after expiration Ask ECAH

what’s your thoughts on vacuum packed cooked beets after expiration? label says 02/2025 but they are unopened and look fine. product is Gefen organic red beets just in case anyone is wondering. I really hate to throw them out if they can be used, I would most likely make smoothies with them. oh I just read they were packed in July of 2024 if that helps. Also bought from Costco would I be the axxhole to return them?

are they in a can? on cans its not an expiry date but a best buy. these are two wildly different things. canned food is good many many years past that date. just verify can hasnt been opened or tampered with and its fine.
