Summary: 

New Years some while ago I got two types of egg nog:  Knudsen (made
with powdered milk, powdered eggs, and all kinds of preservatives) and
Altadena (made with whole cream, whole eggs, and no preservatives)--
both with the same expiration date.

Two weeks later I threw out the Knudsens since it had turned into an egg
nog version of sour milk.  The Altadena was still good a week after that--
and got drunk up.

Tentative conclusion:  maybe they put all those preservatives in there to
insure that the food spoils.  (Or alternatively maybe they use MUCH older
food in stuff that's going to be made with preservatives.)
