Are You Reading Food Expiration Dates Wrong?
Is your "expired" food actually dangerous, or are you just throwing money in the trash? According to the USDA, average households lose $1,300 a year because of food waste. Misunderstanding expiration, best-by, and sell-by dates is a big part of the problem.
With only a few exceptions, these dates are suggestions and not firm rules.Besides saving money, reducing food waste can help reduce emissions, so save your budget and the planet!
