EXPIRED is a five minute film that reveals how best by and sell by dates applied at the state level restrict stores from selling or donating perfectly good food. Did you know that "spoiled" pasteur...

unconventionalbaker Really a shame. I guess there's no way to avoid this when food is mass produced the way it is today -- common sense is traded for "standards" that tend to backfire... :/
-
JenniferEmilson Isn't it also an issue of not understand 'Best By' dates vs 'Use By' dates. Best By is a safety net for retailers, even though there is plenty of life still in that product! Nothing beats our own...
-
annefood @JenniferEmilson totally! But apparently those best by dates aren't even backed by current science, yet after that date the food can't even be donated! There needs to be some sort of either a)...

DietID_TeamDietitians i think people just need to learn how to smell milk - e.g. get to know their food a bit more.

annefood Yes this is so ridiculous. @unconventionalbaker @JenniferEmilson and I were talking about this last week, and I suggested that there either needs to be a federal regulation as this article...
-
JenniferEmilson Sell by dates and Best by dates are purely for the retailer's benefit. Common sense needs to be taught as well. I was intrigued by this conversation last week. And like @rachna said, Use your nose....
