I wouldn't risk it, better eat veggies and rice. Eating rotten meat sound dangerous.
Meat never expires it decomposes. If you have kept your chicken in an airtight container and stored it in a freezer it will never decompose and hence it can be consumed. Those expiry dates do not make any sense unless the meat has been processed.
It depends why the chicken expired. If it was diseased, and then chlorinated, then I wouldn't eat it under any circumstances. In the past I've hung road kill pheasant until the maggots arrive, and they banged off the maggots, and cooked it. That is the way you get the true rich game flavour. I'm not sure that is advisable with most modern farm reared chickens though.
Yeah mate and the meat will only get bad when we took off the freezer and after cooling down then will bring back to freezer again.
I've eaten months-old fish left in the freezer before, nothing happened.
In the end, just came out as poo-poo.
Yeah had been eating also left overs that stays for month in the freezer but nothing happens.
and I usually buy more that our budget per week every grocery time and it happens that added every week.
So in the end plenty of meat left under the freezer.
if the expired meat has not been stored in the freezer it is not advisable to consume it after the expiry date and perhaps not even the last day of the expiry is valid for all types of meat

ended up tossing it to the ally dogs since it was not a good cut of meat
i recommend it if you wanna get sick, if not, don't do it 
However, I won't do it if it had expired the day before.
Meat has a "best before" date - not expiry date. There is no reason you can't eat meat months after the best before date, if it is refrigerated.
But if meat will stay in freezer then it is safe even months after the best before seal.
If your chicken expires on 14/7, would you still cook it and feed your family?
I would not cook it and feed to my family, i would not risk my stomach even it's on the fridge it can cause diarrhea. I just buy new and fresh meat in the market.If your chicken expires on 14/7, would you still cook it and feed your family?

Companies are giving slack expiration dates for this reason. They want to protect their brands as well.
doesnt have a bad smell, then I will cook it.
You're right if it's doesn't have bad smell and looks good, i will cook it also But i don't recommend cooking meat on expired date, it's possible that your family will be sick if you cooked it. Just buy new one if you had a budget. If your chicken expires on 14/7, would you still cook it and feed your family?

The date on the package is the minimum required date to be fresh. Companies don't want to get sued over bad meat so they always will take some days before the meat actually expires.
If the color is still normal and it doesn't smell very bad you can still eat it.
One tip would be to just put in the freezer right after buying it, if it takes a few days for you to prepare it. In the freezer it can be stored much longer.
You wrote this on 14/7, same day, so the answer is: Yes.
Most things are good even after the expiry date, but you could restrict it to adults if you are afraid of something.
My experience with eating things post the "best before" date, is that they may taste funny, but not a big deal. Frozen meat does last until unfrozen, more or less.
Perhaps he couldn't wait any longer and had already devoured the meat.
OP, do update us how it tasted

Certainly I will not continue to cook chicken and expired food because it will be harmful to me and all members of my family and will cause us to be poisoned for sure. I always prefer to buy fresh chicken, it is more beneficial and safer than frozen chicken

Dates are always indicated with a small margin, to be able to use the meat is not sold after the expiration date, rather than throw it away and waste. Therefore, if there are no apparent signs of deterioration of the product, you can confidently use it. My friends working in the food industry, so that this information is not taken from my imagination.
Of course, this applies to meat (and other foods) that have been stored under the right conditions. If the conditions were not met, then it will deteriorate even before the expiration date.
Have you eat anything after which got expired? Definitely it will taste bad and I had experienced with drinks like coke much often because most of the supermarkets are trying to sell the expired drinks, literally they are waste on most of the occasions. Of course, this applies to meat (and other foods) that have been stored under the right conditions. If the conditions were not met, then it will deteriorate even before the expiration date.
I don't think meat expires, specially when kept in freeze. Like if it's gotten damaged then no, but surely the official date of meat expiry generally is very sooner than actually the meat is unconsumeable at all. Because it's non veg things, and also depends on which season it is tbh.
There is a reason why we have expiry dates for our edible items, consuming any expired food can cause food poisoning even it leds to kill on rare occasions.Okay now let's talk about chicken,if it is just a frozen chicken you can cook well and eat but the taste may not be the best or if it is any processed food then its better to avoid.
