Extend The Life Of Dairy Products

This may sound a bit weird, but adding salt to your dairy products will make them last longer because it is a natural preservative. Salt soaks up excess moisture and prevents mold from forming. If you add a pinch of salt to your milk, an amount so small that you won’t even taste it, it can last for about a week past its expiration date! Salt can also help cheeses stay good for longer. Simply soak a napkin in saltwater and cover the cheese with it.
