How often have you avoided that particular can or boxed food product because it was close to the 'use by' or 'sell by' date? I know that I have. I don't know about you, but my nickles have to stretch as far as they can. In the last two years, both my husband and I have laid off of our jobs, and when the new jobs became available, they were at half the salary we earned in our former positions. So keeping to a tight budget has been a necessity.
Today, during my web surfing, I came across two web pages that offer information about all those 'mysterious' dates you find on food products. They are the Sharp Shopper Grocery Outlet and Grocery Clearance Center. Not only do they offer this information, but they offer these goods to customers in their area. Wish I had one in my area.
Here are the web links to these pages, a link to a pdf article about product dating, and an article about expired foods.
