If your cubes are way past their date, prep half a cup of broth as a test. All you need is a half cup of boiling water and one-fourth of a bouillon cube. If it tastes bad, get rid of it.
Barring unforeseen advances in medical science, yes, you are going to die, but it is not likely to be soon or from ‘bad bouillon’. My parents have spices in their cabinets older than their marriage and they refuse to let me go through it and ‘update’. I am guessing there is stuff in there from 78-79 too.

It will also have a slippery or sticky feel when you run your fingers over it. Bad steak will usually get this slimy film on it a couple of days before it begins to mold. Mold, of course, is a definite sign that your once fresh steak is now loaded with harmful bacteria, and its quality is no longer safe to eat.
Steaks can and do go bad, even in the freezer, if they’re not stored correctly or if they’re stored for too long. The last thing you want is for your favorite food to make you sick. This seems pretty obvious, but a lot of people don’t know that there’s a difference between a sell-by and use-by date.
