EAT BY DATE ON FOOD PRODUCTS

The expiration date on food tells the buyer how long they can eat food before it expires. Most people, when they see the date and realize it is overdue, just throw it out right away. Many people are not aware that the date on the food is often false information and the food often lasts a lot longer that what the date on the food says.

IS THE FOOD SAFE ONCE IT EXPIRES?

The expiration date on a food product is often telling the buyer what the food quality is, not the food safety. Some foods are completely safe to eat once the expire, although they might not taste as good or the quality of the food will be different.
