Sorry to start another thread on food banks, but I've done a search and none of the existing threads seem relevant  to  this specific issue.

I have several canned items which are past their "best before"  (but not sell by)  dates by one or two years - specifically, jackfruit in water and coconut milk.

I'm sure they are fine to eat, and I would use them myself, but my diet has changed and I'm highly unlikely to.

To save me phoning round, does anybody know if local food banks would accept them?

I second the Olio suggestion. Just download the App and register. The Albrighton food bank does have a telephone number  - 0207737 6186  is the number of the community centre, so that might be it.

The southwark Foodbank has a "wanted" list here https://southwark.foodbank.org.uk/give-help/donate-food/

It's the final date which counts so the southwark foodbank would definitely take them

What do you mean by "final date"? 

As in "use by ...."?

So a "best before" date which has passed would be ok?

    • Very friendly and marginally competitive before placing the order.  During the works, not reliable scheduling and a lot of grunting, huffing and puffing. BUT BEWARE: Living room carpet laid not square to the walls - the edges are cut not following the stitches/pattern and will fray (not correctable without new carpet - given up) Stair carpets edges fraying - not cut and fitted carefully. One bedroom room carpet is not stretched and has a ridge. The Lynoleum floor in the bathroom buckled. Twice made appointments to correct the last 3 faults, twice did not turn up (the van is broken first; in hospital - without being able to confirm location - second time).  Never called back to arrange the visit.  Clearly he was relying on and succeeding in frustrating me to give up.  During the work, 36 hours of silence with the story “I lost my phone”. Much delay in providing the copy of the invoice for the purchase of a specific carpet - as my guarantee for 6 years of moth resistance. Could not provide references from clients but just one estate agent (Luisaat Samuel Estate Agents) claiming he works for agents . YOU MAY CONSIDER KEEPING AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!
