Tesco Egg Fired Rice

I bought a box of Tesco's egg fried rice a few days ago and I was not aware of the due date that it say on the cover "use by 08th March" which is yesterday. I keep it in the fridge since I bought it. Is it still save to eat today or should I throw it away?

Look-is there mould
Smell-does it smell fine
Taste- no funny taste?
Then it's fine-honestly one day is nothing. I eat things that are sometimes a week out of date, providing there appears to be nothing wrong with them. The BB date is more for the shops-so they can't get sued or whatever because they've sold someone something mouldy

Yes of course it is safe to eat today. Today I have had a yogurt - a week past its sell by date. Milk that expired yesterday and tonight I am having peppers that are two months old - cut the soggy bits off, bak - yum.
