REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Learn the Truth About Expiration Dates

Now that you know the difference between use by, sell by, and best by dates, how will you view expiration dates differently?

I've always been a firm believer of the "smell test" but now have a bit more knowledge about how to decipher date labeling:

A "Best if Used By/Before" indicates when a product will be of best flavor or quality.

A "Sell-By" date tells the store how long to display the product for sale for inventory management.

A "Use-By" date is the last date recommended for the use of the product while at peak quality.
