Depends on what you purchase and how you use/store it.

I've had organic sour cream that lasted several weeks beyond the
expiry date. Same with organic milk and cream. To accomplish this, I
NEVER use an already-used spoon in any opened food container. I NEVER
use a spoon I've eaten off of to spoon out any kinda pkg'd food,
specially salsa!! New spoon every time. You use a spoon you've eaten
off of, the food will never reach the expiry date.

Needless to say, I spend a whole lotta time washing spoons.
