Fact or Fiction
Lets talk about “expiration dates” on foods. This is a fairly recent requirement from the FDA that all foods provide some sort of indication as to when the food is getting close to spoilage. Many people are being fooled by these dates, and are wasting food and dollars by discarding items long before necessary. For instance, milk will have a date that usually says “best when used by” but it does not spoil for several days after the posted date. The best way to tell if food is really spoiled is to taste it! If it tastes bad, then throw it out. If it tastes just fine, then go ahead and eat it!
