REFLECTION QUESTIONFoodNow that you know the difference between use by, sell by, and best by dates, how will you view expiration dates differently?
Jessica Bessette 4/24/2018 8:21 AMI will base my decisions based on the food itself to determine if it has gone bad rather than the date on the package. I wall also be better about using the food before it expires.
