What have you eaten past due, and how did it sit? Also, what happens to sour cream when it's past due? Does it become ultra-sour?

Yogurt is usually ok for a week or so past its due date, provided it has been properly refrigerated and the seals on the lids have not been broken. Remember, they are guidelines, use common sense.
Sometimes it might go bad before the expiry date too, sometimes it is good past the expiry date. Use your common sense, your eyes and your nose.
The most reasonable thing to do is buy in quantities so that you can consume them within the expiry date timeline.
