Quick and Easy Recipe to Make Cake Without Eggs

I came up with this recipe by myself recently by attempting some experimental baking recipes inbetween jobs getting dinner ready, and basically just winged it to see what would happen, after wondering if it was possible to make a cake without eggs.

The result turned out quite well, so I am writing it down here for the benefit of anybody who wants to make cake when they are short of ingredients, or they want cake but have an egg allergy, or they have other weird eating habits such as being a vegan.

How to Tell if Milk is Bad

One question I used to frequently see on Question and Answer websites such as the now defunct Yahoo Answers were ones about how to tell if milk is bad, as well as how long after the expiry date can you drink milk.

This article is here to try to give you a clear answer on how to tell if milk is bad, and probably best not to drink.

The most obvious way is to simply look at the label on the container, but even that is no guarantee it is still safe to. In my past experience I have found it is not unheard of for milk to expire a couple of days before the expiry date on the container. Usually just after I have put it on my cereal and it tastes weird.
