I discovered that the use by date of the chicken that I bought recently was two days ago.
It is still sealed and looks fine. I have yet to conduct the sniff test as I'm unsure whether there is any point.
Is it generally still safe to cook with?

The trouble with any question like this is it depends on the pack's journey from the factory to store, from store to your home, to the fridge, & exactly how cold your fridge is. Too many variables. – Tetsujin Sep 28 '20 at 17:08

No it is not. It has a reason that the text says "use by" instead of "best before". Poultry belongs together with fish and clams to the most risky foods and you can´t see or smell the most hazardous ways it can spoil, but be assured that botulism is an extremely unpleasant death. – J.
