Can I Still Use Refrigerated Egg Whites?

In summary, it is not recommended to use refrigerated egg whites after the expiration date as they may spoil and cause foodborne illness. They can last up to 4-5 days in the fridge if stored properly, but it is best to use them within 2-3 days for optimal freshness and safety. You can freeze them for up to 12 months, but make sure to thaw them in the fridge before using. You can also use them in most recipes that call for fresh egg whites, but make sure to bring them to room temperature first. If they have a strange odor or appearance, it is best to discard them.

If I separated an egg last night for the yolk and frigerated the white until today, is it still good to use?
 
Yes, it is. That's what egg beaters really are....egg whites. They can be refrigerated for several days.

I even freeze them and save them for angel food cake.
