expired goods
No longer sellable
Expired goods are products that have passed their designated shelf life or use-by date.
The term appears most often in retail and food safety contexts, referring to items that should be removed from sale or discarded: The store donated expired goods to a local charity.
Whether expired goods are actually unsafe depends on the product—many remain usable past their printed dates, while others pose genuine health risks.
