Bottom Line. Milk generally stays fresh for up to five days after the date on the carton, but itâs better to be safe than sorry. Note the date on the milk before you buy it, purchase the carton stamped with the latest date available and then use the date as a guideline, not a rule. Your nose is likely the best judge.
The longer the milk has been in the fridge, the sooner it will go bad. If it's only been refrigerator for a day, then it should still be okay for about 6 hours. If it's been in there for 5 days, I'd only give it 2 hours. Your wife shouldn't have to worry about using day-old milk within two hours.
