Understanding "Best By" vs. Expiry DatesUpdated 4 months ago

What is a "Best By" Date?

A "Best By" date is a suggestion to get the best quality out of your product. It indicates the date until which the product is expected to remain at its peak flavor and freshness. It's important to note that the product is still safe to consume after this date, although its quality may begin to decline.

What is an Expiry Date?

An expiry date, on the other hand, indicates the date after which the product may no longer be safe to consume. This is often found on perishable items such as dairy, meat, and certain pharmaceuticals. Consuming products past their expiry date can pose health risks.

Why We Use a "Best By" Date

We prioritize providing the best possible experience with our products. That's why we use "Best By" dates to help you enjoy them at their finest quality. Rest assured, consuming our products shortly after this date is perfectly safe, though you may notice a slight change in taste or texture.

By understanding the difference, you can make informed decisions and enjoy our products with confidence!
