Chicken... 3 years past use by date... tasted great

I was rooting around in my store for a specific tin item the other day and noticed 2 dented tins. They were not like that when I put them in store originally. There may have been more. It is possible some could be dented inadvertantly in use of the store, with tins & other goods being moved about etc.
I will be having a big stock check/rotation this week and any found like that will be removed to the normal kitchen store. People store foodstuffs in different ways and some will be more prone to accidental minor dings than others. As long as the inventory is checked regularily and the damaged containers flagged up, then it should not cause too much of a problem.
