While you`re tossing out your Thanksgiving leftovers today, on Throw Out Your Leftovers day, take a look at other items that may have been in your refrigerator past their best-by date. Like salsa. According to @epicurious, "An open jar of salsa keeps for only about a month. So you might want to break open the tortilla chips and get snacking."
