> To adhere with the requisite language outlined, any food products with a date label — with the exception of infant formula, eggs, beer, and malt beverages — must state “Best if Used By” to indicate peak quality, and “Use By” to designate food safety.
I mean, personally a big fan. I recently started seeing "Packed on <date>" and like wtf does that even mean. Was the corn also picked on that date?
Like these dates have been on products for as long as I can remember. Might was well have some rules around them finally.
Sorry for the juvenile joke, but I cannot help imagining an assembly worker picking up the bag, shouting "ur mom's FAT!" and stamping "roasted on Oct 7 2024" :D
Same. I only buy the ones that have the roast date because most of the best if used by dates are around a year after the roast date. Cannot trust that.
