FOOD LABELS CONFUSIONS

Monday, November 30, 2009



Food labels are written in these formats

  1. Use-by: the key date in terms of safety. Never eat food after this date. Found on cooked meats, soft cheeses and dairy-based desserts
  2. Best-before: is about quality not safety. Food should be safe to eat after this date, but it might not be at its best. One exception is eggs
  3. Sell-by/Display-until: this information is for the retailer, not the customer. It is mainly used for stock control purposes
