"Natural Resources Defense Council and Harvard Law School squashed the
long-standing myth surrounding “sell by,” “best by” and “use by” dates
on food. It revealed how those dates, which are mostly unregulated and
surprisingly arbitrary, tell the consumer next to nothing about how long
a product will stay fresh. Yet 90 percent of Americans are under the
mistaken impression that they do – and that they are inviolable –
causing us to needlessly throw away food."
Sounds like someone we all know...
