Remember this ponderous question? I got some great answers from everyone so I have another question to ask you.
How can you tell when Croutons are bad, I mean aren't they already made of stale bread?

Michael never knows what to write in these little description areas. Should he say something witty to make people laugh and remember him or does he do something snarky like quoting Hamlet. Well whatever he writes here, it is just only a brief glimpse inside. Make your own choices, you'll stay if you want to.

I'm not sure if croutons are always made of stale bread or not. I've actually made them by placing bread cubes in an oven on low heat, turning off the oven, and then leaving the oven door ajar to let the heat escape and eventually allowing the bread to completely dry out. I'd say that if the croutons are mold-free, then they're pretty much safe to eat.
If you buy ready-made croutons at the grocery store, then they probably have so many preservatives that I'd guess that they're safe to eat for months.
Wow! I guess I have a lot to say about croutons. Who knew?
I avoid Croutons that are older than half an hour.
Um, Blue Cheese starts to grow on them?
Again, I never have croutons long enough for them to go bad.
But creoutons shoud always be made from day old bread otherewise you don't get the right texture.
i've had a box of store bought croutons that actually went soft and chewy after they had been open for awhile. so maybe the croutons just revert back to bread!
TBF - Such information! I'm gonna check with you on all of my questions from now on!
Gomad - I see you're a picky eater!
Karen - That explains A LOT!
Ms. Mac - You should be with Gomad.
ADS - Maybe that's what is supposed to happen...mine are still crunchy so that's a good sign!
real crutons are just like bread, and will generally mold. The kind you get in a box (*ew*) are usually good for year. They have stuff that makes mold die... hehe.
croutons are the first thing I pick out and throw away when I order a salad. I think most of times they are fried, which is not healthy
