Woman purchases turkey with '07 expiration date

Libby Spires bought the out-dated turkey earlier this month from Apple Market located on Lebanon Pike.

"I was shocked because it said November 23, 2007," she recalled.  "I said, ‘Oh my gosh, I can't eat this turkey!'"

Spires continued, "I don't know why I didn't look [at the date when I bought it]. I was just busy. I didn't look at it then, but it's the first thing I did when I took it out of the freezer today."

Spires returned the expired bird to the store on Tuesday afternoon for a complete refund.

She said she decided to purchase a turkey for Thanksgiving at a different store and was sure to check the expiration date.
