It will be fine. "Expiration dates" are a contrivance. They are never meaningful outside of fresh food (bacteria or yeast are the primary culprits here). Canned goods, for example, have an expiration date of a year or whatever, but they will probably last a thousand years (until the cans degrade).
Horse paste has no components that can be eaten by bacteria, so there is nothing to degrade it (assuming it is still in the container). There is nothing to worry about.
Depends on the canned product. Many items will last for many years but I found that canned evaporated milk was definitely not usable when I opened one I had found in the back of my stash that was a year out of date.
I had some spaghetti sauce that was expired. I ate it and it tasted fine but it had a different look to it - kind of more glumpy. And yeah, I know that's not a word.
You wrote it. I understood what you were saying. That makes it a word. That is how language works.
Congratulations Mr. Webster.
Some days I feel like about 3% of my words are originals lol.
