Best Before, But not bad after!
## <center>"Best Before August 15th, But Not Bad After" </center>

---


I just finished my morning glass of milk when I noticed that it had expired 6 days ago!
And it it still good! 
No wonder why they write "Best before, but not bad after". I don't throw away food when the date has expired, if it passes my smell test I'll eat it.

Do you throw away food when the date says its expired?

I hold a food handler's certificate, and 'best before' means (in most cases) nutritional value, flavor, etc... decreases after that date.  In some cases, such as meats, it gets a bit touchier, and you would want to use it asap, or freeze it immediately.  There is also 'sell by' date, which is similar.  I've used (personal use) plenty of things that were way past the date.  Things in cans last forever, but the taste goes downhill after a year or two....

thats why they have this "Best before, but not bad after" date. where I come from they are not allowed to sell food that have passed the "best before" date..  they should give the expired food to the people in need and not throw it in the dumpster..

In France, it's the law to give it away, not throw it away.  But, you can see how helpful it is marketing-wise to convince people food can't be eaten after that date; it makes people buy more.
